Feedback, it’s a word that evokes strong feelings. Whether it’s something that we try and avoid, something we struggle to give (or receive) or something we seek to get better at, it’s an ever-present, and vital communication too. While feedback can be uncomfortable and require courage, doing so with respect invites trust, improved outcomes, and engagement. In this webinar, we will explore feedback from simple to more in-depth and complex, as it exists along a spectrum. As well, we will share tools that we can utilize daily to better communicate our needs, expectations, and goals with each other. Whether you currently manage a staff of 10 or are looking to increase your comfort with receiving (and giving) feedback, or somewhere in-between, this webinar is for those looking to dive into this vital skillset and build confidence. Join us to learn more and grow your communications toolbox!
