→ Role Play: Pair up the members of the group, give them an example of
giving positive feedback and have them role play that situation with each
other. After, have them give the other person feedback to the group on
how what their partner did well. Then, give them an example situation of
giving feedback on an opportunity to improve (constructive) to someone,
and have them practice in the same way. They should then give each
other feedback after everyone has had that practice conversation. Not
only are they practicing with a pretend situation, but they also get the
opportunity to practice with real feedback in a controlled setting and
have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss. *The way you word
your examples is just as important as giving them the practice.*
Suggested Learning Projects:
→ Self-Directed Learning: Each person should come back to the next
coaching session with one example of a situation during the week where
they had to give feedback to a peer. They should be prepared to
discuss what went well and what they could have done better and how
they will improve in their next feedback discussion. They should do the
same with one example of a time where they received feedback from a
peer during the week.
Supplemental Coaching Strategies:
→ Non-Verbal Coaching: When you observe someone on your team
giving or receiving feedback well throughout the week, leave them a
note on their desk letting them know that they did a good job and why.
Make sure that your note is specific.
