Introduction

Feedback is one of the most widely discussed topics in organizations. Everyone understands its importance, yet in practice, it often fails to have the intended effect. Feedback tends to focus on what went wrong, while people often learn more effectively when they understand what is already working well.

In the ‘Feedback as a Catalyst for Growth’ training program, you will learn how to shift the focus from criticism to growth. You will discover how to have conversations that create energy instead of resistance. By focusing on opportunities and possibilities, you will contribute to a constructive, forward-looking culture where learning becomes part of everyday work.

Your training program in 3 steps

  • Prior to the training program, we ask you to complete an online intake form. If you prefer to discuss your personal learning objectives in more detail, we’ll be more than happy to schedule a one-on-one intake call. Based on your learning objectives, background, and focus areas, we’ll match you with a training group with similar professionals. In this way, the training will be aligned with your situation and learning objectives.

  • The two-day training program ‘Feedback as a Catalyst for Growth’ is spread over the course of two weeks. Each training day combines inspiration, theory, and practical exercises. There will be a mix of plenary sessions, group assignments, and time for reflection. In this way, the skills you acquired can be put to use right away.

    In between the two training days, you’ll apply what you’ve learned in your daily work. During the second training day, you’ll discuss your experiences, insights, and results with the trainer and the group. Your training program ends with a personal evaluation and a clear plan of action for the future.

This is a good course for when you want to give feedback in a positive way. The trainer also took the time to give a piece of the feedback course and we practiced a lot with practical situations.

The training course is concrete and focused on personal need. In addition, I learned a fine strategy and technique. Make sure you have a foundation in feedback, and then move forward to feed forward.
