1 Why feedback matters

Feedback is essential for learning and development. It helps your clients identify their strengths and weaknesses, set realistic goals, and measure their progress. Feedback also helps you as a coach to tailor your approach and methods to each client's needs and preferences. However, feedback can also be challenging, especially if your clients are sensitive, defensive, or resistant to change. Therefore, you need to be careful and mindful of how you deliver and frame your feedback.

First, as a Technical Writer, your job is to get to "THE TRUTH" behind all the Processes and then, to turn those Processes into "EXACTNESS." Therefore, we are driven for two paths (Why we are writing this document and How we are going to write this document). As a result, we have two primary resources (the End User and the SME). The End User's POV is primary for decision-making (The Why) and the SME's expertise is secondary for problem-solving (The How). As Technical Writer, we "CONVERGE" these two paths to create "Working and Livable" Documentation that supports and clarifies our Corporate Policies and Procedures.

2 How to prepare your feedback

Before you give your clients feedback, it's important to prepare it well. Start by observing and recording their performance using audio or video recordings, notes, or checklists. Then, analyze and evaluate their performance based on criteria like pitch, tone, breath control, rhythm, expression, and technique. You can also compare their performance to their previous ones or to their goals. When selecting and prioritizing your feedback points, choose the most important and relevant ones and balance positive and negative feedback. Lastly, plan and organize your feedback using a structure such as the sandwich method or examples, demonstrations, or questions to illustrate and clarify your feedback.

Feedback is too important to be left to chance. First, all feedback is given based on Corporate Policies/Procedures or Department Directives. Regardless of the Position, feedback tends to evoke negative situations and relationships, so you should provide all the "Regulations" governing your response so the Individual will direct their anger at Ideas and not at you. Once an Employee directs "negative" energy in your direction, you will spend more time in "corporate politics," than doing your job. Remember, each action item in your Feedback must be driven by a Corporate/Company/Department Policy and Procedure. When you include all 3 levels, then your feedback has Executive Support and you move forward with no backlash.

3 How to deliver your feedback

When you give your clients feedback, it's important to be clear, respectful, and supportive. To ensure that your feedback is effective, choose the right time and place. You should give feedback as soon as possible after their performance, but also when they are ready and willing to listen. Additionally, pick a private and quiet place with no interruptions or distractions. Additionally, use a friendly and encouraging tone to avoid harsh or judgmental words. Use specific and descriptive language instead of vague or general terms. Involve your clients in the feedback process by asking them for their own opinions and feelings. Open-ended questions like "How do you think you did?" or "What did you enjoy most?" can help elicit their self-evaluation and reflection. Also ask them for their suggestions and preferences, such as "What would you like to work on next?" or "How do you learn best?".

Delivering Feedback "depends" on the situation, but here are valuable guidelines for managing this activity. 1 - Time Interval 2 - Impact Level 3 - Publishing Power Time Interval Is this action item for today, tomorrow, this week, or in the future? The more immediate the action item, I STRONGLY SUGGEST you have a face-to-face with this individual. If you are virtual, then this includes Zoom. Impact Level Will this action item impact Policy, Procedure, or a Technical Bulletin? If so, then you should bypass a "Meeting" and do a quick Face-to-Face. Publishing Power If you can publish this action item without interference, then you can wait until the last minute to get the information. In this instance, use "TACT" to get the information.

4 How to follow up on your feedback

After giving your clients feedback, it's important to help them act on it and improve their singing. To do this, you should start by helping your clients set SMART goals based on your feedback. It's also important to review these goals regularly and monitor their progress. Additionally, you should provide your clients with materials and exercises that can help them practice and enhance their singing skills. You should also recommend that they listen to or watch other singers, or join a choir or a band, to expose them to different styles and genres of music. Moreover, it's important to give your clients positive reinforcement and praise for their efforts and improvements. You should also celebrate their achievements, big or small, and reward them with incentives or recognition.

5 How to deal with feedback challenges

Sometimes, when giving feedback to clients, you may encounter some difficulties or obstacles. To overcome these common feedback challenges, try to understand their perspective and emotions, and acknowledge their strengths and achievements. Explain the benefits and purpose of your feedback, and avoid arguing or criticizing them. Also, boost their confidence and morale, emphasizing their progress and growth instead of mistakes or weaknesses. Offer them support and encouragement, as well as simplifying and summarizing your feedback with concrete and specific examples. Check their understanding and comprehension by asking them to repeat or paraphrase your feedback. Invite them to ask questions or clarify any doubts or concerns. With these tips and strategies, you can help your clients receive your feedback in a positive and constructive way, enabling them to improve their singing skills and achieve their musical goals.
