What you'll find inside

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where offering feedback seemed essential but also presented a challenge, especially when critical points needed to be conveyed? How often do you find yourself deliberating whether to express your thoughts or let the moment pass?

You're not alone if you find giving feedback uncomfortable. 

According to researchers at Harvard Business School, nearly 70% of managers express discomfort when communicating with employees.

Many managers express a distinct dislike for, or even hate giving feedback, often to the point of avoiding it altogether. This aversion is usually rooted in the discomfort associated with potentially negative reactions or the fear of damaging relationships. The anxiety over how feedback might be perceived can lead to missed opportunities for individual’s growth and team’s potentials.

Though feedback sounds almost scary to many, the process of providing feedback, as well as communicating with employees and colleagues, does not need to be viewed as a daunting task. In fact, when handled correctly, it can transform into a delightful, enriching, and genuinely enjoyable experience. Feedback, when delivered with the right intent and in the appropriate manner, can be one of the most powerful tools for fostering professional development and building trust.

A word from the author

Over the years, my career has spanned multiple industries, allowing me the privilege of collaborating with numerous leaders.

A recurring challenge encountered by many of these leaders is how to effectively handle feedback. In my work, closely supporting leaders through coaching and mentoring initiatives, I've had the chance to introduce the CORNS model, featured in this guide, to a significant number of them.

Our data shows that numerous leaders appreciate having a structured model as a starting point. This framework aids them in transitioning from conscious awareness to unconscious competence in their leadership practices.
