Giving critical feedback can be challenging, even for experienced managers. That’s why so many leaders subtly disguise their feedback as a “praise sandwich,” hoping to hide bad news and avoid uncomfortable topics. But research shows that this practice is largely ineffective – and may even cause more harm than good. Apply the foundations of feedforward to manage difficult conversations with team members. Learn a powerful approach to delivering just-in-time feedback that emphasizes candor, clarity and collaboration – the virtuous cycle of feedforward. When situations call for hard truths, you need to find your voice – and help others find theirs, too.

When feedback is scarce, so are opportunities for growth. Even when individuals seek out feedback, research suggests that the information they receive may arrive too late and fail to provide the lift they're looking for. Learn how feedforward can help you navigate your career at any stage. By asking the right questions (it’s more science than art) and developing strong networks (diversified beats deep), team leaders and employees alike can get timely, transformational support without losing their standing or sanity. Explore specific strategies for getting the guidance you want, when you need it most.
