Three Secrets to Giving Feedback that Build Trust: Practical Tools for Burned-Our Professionals

Have you ever struggled to give feedback because by the time you're giving it, you’re already frustrated and even resentful?

Well, guess what? There are three secrets to giving feedback that help build trust with your team that are better for all people involved.

1. Offer feedback 1-on-1.
Feedback is personal, and many people feel vulnerable when receiving it. By offering feedback in a private, one-on-one setting, you show respect and care for the other person's feelings. This approach reduces the potential for embarrassment and allows for a more open, honest conversation, fostering a deeper level of trust and understanding.

2. Consent.
Yes, asking permission to give feedback is crucial. It can be as simple as saying, “Are you open to receiving feedback right now?” By doing this, you ensure the person is in the right space to receive and process the feedback constructively.

3. Have courageous conversations early and often.
Don’t wait for resentment to build before speaking honestly. Instead, address challenges as they arise, kindly and transparently. This way, trust is built gradually, and you won’t find yourself dreading that ONE BIG HARD CONVERSATION.
