Whilst feedback is likely to be already implemented in all businesses to some degree, the lack thereof is not the issue but rather the content, delivery, and choice of words. However, understanding what makes feedback effective is an important first step in identifying whether you have any shortcomings.
Proven effective feedback models such as IDEA, SMART, CEDAR, SBI, Pendleton and DESC all share 3 key elements that have led to their effectiveness. These 3 key elements are:
The behaviour – identifying the issue (or positive area) in the context
The result – explaining how the behaviour impacted the company or individuals involved
The next steps – identifying a way forward (mutual understanding)
