                    When some people hear the word feedback, the hairs on the back of their neck stand up. You may have had a bad experience receiving feedback or perhaps you gave someone feedback and it didn’t land as you intended.

                      

                    To nurture a feedback culture, leaders need to create a psychologically safe environment. As a thriving leader, you will need to give and receive feedback.

                    • What feedback is? 
                    • The barriers to giving quality feedback. 
                    • How to give feedback effectively.
