How to Give Feedback That Actually Changes Behavior
from Manager Mondays with Fexingo: People Management, Team Leadership, and First-Time Managers · host Fexingo
Most managers dread giving corrective feedback because it feels like criticism. But the best leaders use a specific technique called 'behavioral specificity' that turns uncomfortable conversations into actual performance improvements. Lucas and Luna break down the research from the Center for Creative Leadership, walk through a real example from a marketing team at HubSpot, and explain why the two-by-two feedback matrix works better than the 'shit sandwich' method. They also discuss why praise needs to be specific too, and how one sentence can undo months of trust. If you've ever left a feedback conversation wondering whether you actually helped, this episode will change how you prepare. #Feedback #ManagerTraining #LeadershipDevelopment #BehavioralCoaching #DifficultConversations #PerformanceManagement #HubSpot #CenterForCreativeLeadership #SpecificFeedback #ManagerMistakes #TeamCulture #TrustBuilding #BusinessCommunication #Careers #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #PeopleManagement #FirstTimeManagers Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
