30-Minute Management Skills Webinars

Feedback That Actually Works

You know what needs to change. They get defensive or confused. Nothing actually improves. The problem isn't that you're giving feedback. It's how you're giving it. This April series teaches one practical skill: How to give feedback that changes behavior instead of creating defensiveness or confusion.

Session Details

Each session is 30 minutes. All three sessions are recorded and sent to registrants. Each session stands alone, but together they build a complete approach to giving feedback that sticks.

Webinar 1: Being Specific (April 15)

Most feedback fails before it starts because it's too vague. In this session, you'll learn how to anchor feedback to observable behavior rather than impressions or character. When people know exactly what you saw, they have something concrete to work with.

Webinar 2: Feedback as Problem-Solving (April 22)

Once someone knows what the issue is, the question becomes: now what? This session covers how to shift the conversation from evaluation to collaboration, so the person receiving feedback becomes part of solving the problem rather than the subject of it.

Webinar 3: Balancing Praise and Growth (April 29) 

Corrective feedback without recognition erodes trust over time. This session teaches how to give specific, meaningful acknowledgment using the same precise approach as constructive feedback, creating a foundation where harder conversations are easier to have.

Who Should Attend

This series is for managers who:

  • Give feedback that lands in silence, confusion, or pushback instead of action

  • Want to be more direct but worry about triggering defensiveness

  • Only give corrective feedback and sense that something is missing from the relationship

  • Are ready to make feedback a two-way conversation instead of a one-way verdict

If you manage people and want feedback to actually lead somewhere, this is for you.

What You'll Walk Away With

After this series, you'll have:

  • A structure for describing what you observed that's clear without being blunt

  • A way to frame corrective conversations that invites ownership rather than resistance

  • A recognition approach that's specific enough to actually mean something

  • One concrete thing to practice after each session in your next feedback conversation
