Feedback culture – seven practical tips
Here are Patrick’s seven practical tips:
1. exemplify feedback from above
Managers should actively give feedback and be open to feedback themselves. When managers value feedback, employees do too.
2. enable regular feedback
Use fixed feedback routines, e.g:
-
- Weekly 1:1 meetings
- Quarterly Reviews
- Feedback rounds after projects
3. combine positive & negative feedback
4. formulate constructively & solution-oriented
Instead of “That was badly done” better:
“I noticed that there was a challenge here. Do you have any ideas on how we can improve it next time?”
5. create psychological safety
Employees need to feel safe to give honest feedback without fear of negative consequences.
6. use anonymous feedback options
7. integrating feedback into the corporate culture
Make feedback a natural part of everyday working life – in meetings, project reviews and daily communication.
