People have difficulty receiving feedback that requires changing behaviour or performance. Providing the feedback in a way that does not cause defensiveness or resentment is an art.
Six ideas to increase your success in giving feedback in a problem situation include:
- Be timely in providing feedback.
- Always speak in a private.
- Focus on the problem; not the person.
- Skip judgments.
- Provide facts.
- Provide details – include times, dates, rates, statistics
