Being intentional about when you choose to share feedback, considering the other person’s preferences and the feedback you have to share, will generally lead to a better outcome.

In the event that you share feedback in scheduled 1-to-1 settings, it can help if you’re prepared for it by arming yourself with actionable comments that you’ve developed beforehand.

A great way to do this is by taking notes on those you’ll be sharing feedback with, keeping a feedback log always to hand such as a notebook or mobile app.

When you see something worth providing feedback on, you can take a note of:

- What did they actually do or say and when did this happen;
- The implication of what they did or said - such as how it made you feel or how it affected the work you’re doing; and
- If you already have a clear idea of anything they should do differently, make a note of that too.

This will help make your feedback fact-based, targeted and actionable - key ingredients to making it more valuable for them.

Your task for today is to spend 5 minutes preparing your feedback log and adding the people you want to offer feedback to, as well as incorporating any feedback you already have for them in the above format.
