1 What is feedforward?

Feedforward is a term coined by executive coach Marshall Goldsmith, who defines it as "a process for providing people with information about the future rather than the past, that increases the likelihood of success in achieving positive change". Feedforward is based on the idea that people can change and improve, and that they are more motivated by positive and specific guidance than by criticism or praise. Feedforward is not a replacement for feedback, but a complement that can enhance learning and performance.

I use Feedfoward with my coachees as a key part of our ongoing development dialogue. Feedback is critical to understand current state and the specific areas a coachee needs to improve. This feedback however is of little value unless you combine it with the feedforward approach to build an action plan with them improve; and most importantly get their buy in to be accountable to the change.

2 How does feedforward build a growth mindset?

A growth mindset is the belief that abilities and talents can be developed through effort, learning, and feedback, which fosters a positive attitude towards challenges, failures, and feedback. Feedforward supports this mindset by focusing on the future rather than the past, offering suggestions rather than judgments, encouraging experimentation instead of perfection, and emphasizing strengths rather than weaknesses. This can lead to higher levels of achievement, motivation, and satisfaction. Feedforward helps people envision and pursue their goals, provides actionable and specific ideas for improvement, invites people to try new things and learn from their experiences, and helps them identify and leverage their existing capabilities.

Giving feedforward can help you develop a growth mindset in others, but it's important to start by asking for permission. Explain the purpose and benefits of feedforward and assure them that you are not judging or criticizing them.

The Feedforward approach is forward in nature however, it is important to note it also supports providing positive recognition on small wins on the forward development journey. This is critical as research has proven people will work harder on their development when they are able to benefit from seeing progress and celebrating small successes along the way to their larger goal.

I have found it is powerful to combine Feedforward with Feedback in the same session with my coachees. These two approaches build upon each other to provide meaningful and positive insights for the coachee.
