Here are some helpful tips to keep in mind:
When receiving feedback from the team you only have two responses you can give, "Thank you" or ask a clarifying question.
Feedback needs to be about you, not the business.
Do this more than once. The team will get better at giving feedback over time.
Here is an example of what my team wrote when running this exercise for the first time.
Not in the room with me, the team can talk openly without holding back.
Having team members work together and come to a belize number data before writing an opinion piece ensures that the opinion is from the entire team, not just from a single team member.
By leaving the team without me, I show as a manager that I trust them and value their feedback.
When I return to the room, I listen and ask for clarification but do not argue which helps set an example of getting feedback from others.
The best part? Now I have feedback that helps me become a better manager. By implementing some feedback, I reinforce the idea that I value my team's feedback and that I am open to change and growth.
This isn't just for managers. Team members can do this themselves. You can ask your manager to do this exercise with you, and if you're brave enough, you can ask your teammates to do it for you too.
Let's break down why this meeting is so important.
