Over the last 15 years, I have led hundreds of workshops to equip managers and leaders at all levels with the skills to have more effective feedback conversations. In my experience working with these leaders, I find that most feedback conversations either don’t happen or don’t happen well . While the frameworks I share in these workshops provide a useful structure with which to prepare for and conduct even the most difficult conversation, they are only half of the equation in getting leaders to step up when it comes to giving improvement feedback. Most leaders won’t improve at giving feedback for the sole reason that they do not address the adaptive component required for their own behavior change — that is, they don’t tend to address the limiting mindsets, beliefs and assumptions that cause them to avoid having difficult feedback conversations in the first place.
