dialogue, where both parties are involved and buy into the process. There needs to be an exchange of ideas, views and opinions from both. Step 4. Constructive Outcomes – Feedback needs to search for ways forward, strategies and solutions to difficulties that arise moving the development and learning forward. These Steps can be helped along if we are:
• Specific
feedback is useless unless it is based around specifics and clarity. Neither party will be able to move forward until they know what does or does not work well
• Evidence based refer to materials which support the feedback
• Parameter bound work within the agreed and negotiated agenda set prior to the review (initial ‘contracting’ meeting) • Realistic work within the agreed and negotiated agenda set prior to the review (initial ‘contracting’ meeting)
• Checking
ask for views and comments on the focus of the feedback, allowing involvement and an ownership of the process. The Mentoring will work better if both parties feedback into the review
• Honest
be true to the agreed delivery of feedback, using sensitivity along with honesty to address issues
