Feedback on where, how was observed (what question, what response, what posture, what use of skill play)

What was good?

What could be improved/how?

Feedback Suggestions

Try to

• Start positive

• Comment on specific aspects

• Move to areas to be improved

• No criticism without recommendation

• Be specific

• Always offer alternatives

• Begin with “…..I wonder if you had tried” ,“….perhaps you could have…..” “…sometimes it might be ..helpful….”

• Distinguish between the intention and the effect of a comment or behaviour

• Distinguish between the person and the performance (“what you said sounded judgmental” –rather than “You are judgmental”)

Try not to

• Forget the person’s emotional response

• Criticise without recommending

• Comment on personal attributes (that can’t be changed)

• Generalise

• Be dishonestly kind – if there was room for improvement be specific and explore alternative approaches

• Forget that your feedback says as much about you as about the person it is directed to

Receiving feedback

• Listen to it (rather than prepare your response/defence)

• Ask for it to be repeated if you didn’t hear it clearly

• Assume it is constructive until proven otherwise; then consider and use those elements that are constructive

• Pause and think before responding

• Ask for clarification and examples if statements are unclear or unsupported

• Accept it positively (for consideration) rather than dismissively (for selfprotection)

• Ask for suggestions of ways you might modify or change your behaviour – opportunity to rehearse

• Respect and thank the person giving feedback
