Jeśli ktoś szuka podstaw do opanowania prawidłowej "informacji zwrotnej", to spokojnie może zacząć od tej książki. Autorka przedstawia swoją wizję feebacku, ale faktycznie to ma ona wiele wspólnego z metodą FUKO. Podstawą jest zaufanie i nastawienie na konstruktywne, budujące i jasne komunikaty. Informacja powinna rozwijać, więc należy tak ją skonstruować, by rzeczywiście motywowała do wzrostu.
It’s funny though - after a book about feedback I get asked about feedback from Blinkist. Perfect timing 😉😉
The key message in these blinks:
For too many of us, feedback is a dirty word. When we think of feedback, we think of something gruesome. But it doesn’t have to be. When it’s done right, feedback can be the best driver of personal and business growth. By learning to make feedback frequent, fair and focused, we can minimize the fear and anxiety we feel about it, and turn it into a positive force for improvement.
Actionable advice:
Take the Implicit Association Test.
When we give or receive feedback, we are influenced by our own ingrained stereotypes and biases. To find out how strongly you are influenced by concepts such as sexuality or race, check out the Implicit Association Test, designed by researchers from universities including Harvard. It can be a really enlightening way to discover any influences that may prevent you from giving truly fair, bias-free feedback.
I’m proud to say I have had the privilege of meeting and getting to know the authors (two very impressive and amazing individuals), which made reading this book even more enjoyable.
Tamra and Laura really persuade you how important of a topic feedback is, not only in our professional lives but even in our personal lives too. It’s a tough and difficult subject that most people prefer avoiding, but when it is done right, it creates a wonderful sense of trust, connection, and growth.
I’ll start by saying Chandler does a good job showing how we tend to bungle feedback – both when giving and when receiving it. She’s definitely researched the topic and offers good examples to back up her points. Anyone reading this should have a better understanding about why feedback is important and why we should strive to be more proactive in ensuring we use it and receive it wisely. My only beef with the book is a statement she makes about ditching various tools we use to create feedback opportunities. One such tool mentioned is the 360 survey. I might not think anything about it except she provides several positive references to the Zenger-Folkman research, which uses 360 feedback to measure extraordinary leadership. I’m a Zenger-Folkman believer, who thinks the work they’ve done is excellent. And, I think 360 surveys can be valuable tools. All in all, you’ll walk away with useful information about feedback. I received an ARC.
This is a great book. I tabbed a ton of points in this read and intend to use it in both my personal and professional life. We make a ton of assumptions and use these assumptions to drive both our actions and interactions with others. This is due to the mental stigmas we gain throughout life experiences. I love the way this author tied difficult topics such as neuroplasticity or ones ability to shape and change the human brain through experiences with the simple concept of chasing a growth mindset. We go through life "proving" ourselves and chasing false value. This is the cost of negative association of feedback to improvement. Overall a great book and easy read.
Highly recommend to anyone looking to improve mindset.
A guide to giving and receiving feedback.If you get vague statements, it is better to ask "could you share an example of when you noticed this?" or maybe "could you explain the impact this had?" or "what is the thing I should be doing more of?". So by seeking and making feedback frequent, and focused, we can turn it into a positive force for growth.
This book is an honest and clear view of feedback, why we fear it and how we can change this fear into useful information. A light, easy read with a poignant message for leaders and followers alike regardless of organization or position. It is the start of a movement to lessen our fear of feedback.
This is an excellent book to read if you are interested in growing either your team or yourself. I can genuinely say that it helped me with my view on feedback and gave me a lot of great tips I can use with the team.
I saw the author give a talk about the subject and liked it enough to buy the book. I thought the ideas are great and expressed well. I recognized some of my own behaviors when she was talking about the current landscape of feedback and I'm excited to try some of the ideas out.
Maybe it's because I read it in polish and was skeptical towards translation, but I didn't like this book really much. Still, when it comes to books abt feedback: Let's Talk by Therese Huston and Thanks for the feedback are my top ones!
Great read for feedback beginners. Quite boring beginning but then just the juicy recipies and hints on how to share and receive feedback. I highly recommend
Overall, the book has good insights on how to provide and receive feedback. What disappointed me is that I needed to go through half of the book to arrive at useful sections....
