Feedback

Making feedback productive

Feedback is not an assessment

  • Feedback is a necessary skill that we use all the time
  • There is often confusion between feedback and assessment or evaluation
  • We have a hard time accepting feedback in difficult situations
  • We need to grow our empathy, our ability to listen, observe and share with respect

Using the Savoir-Relier methodology and L’ATELIER as a reservoir of knowledge and practice, in this workshop, you will improve your ability to give and receive feedback with sincerity and respect.

When signing up for this workshop, you know you are joining a group of people who, like you, are in need to improve their use of feedback to enrich their interpersonal relationships and grow their empathy.
