Feedback is essential for any geologist who wants to grow and improve their skills, knowledge, and performance.

1 Ask for feedback

The first step is to ask for feedback regularly and proactively. Don't wait for your annual review or a formal evaluation to find out how you are doing. Instead, seek out feedback from different sources, such as your supervisor, colleagues, clients, mentors, or even yourself. You can ask for feedback after completing a project, presenting a report, or solving a problem. You can also ask for feedback on specific aspects of your work, such as your technical skills, communication skills, or teamwork skills. Be clear about what kind of feedback you want and how you plan to use it.

If I'm struggling to receive feedback, it can only mean that I'm the problem, that is, if I am aware of it. Otherwise, I'll need to set up an anonymous survey through HR for feedback and hiring a coach to help me improve.

2 Listen to feedback

The second step is to listen to feedback with an open mind and a positive attitude. Feedback is not a personal attack or a criticism of your worth. It is an opportunity to learn and improve. Therefore, you should avoid getting defensive, angry, or dismissive when you receive feedback. Instead, you should thank the person for their feedback, acknowledge their perspective, and ask questions to clarify or understand their points. You should also avoid interrupting, arguing, or making excuses when you listen to feedback.

3 Act on feedback

The third step is to act on feedback and apply it to your work. Feedback is useless if you don't do anything with it. Therefore, you should review the feedback you received, identify the key areas for improvement, and set goals and action plans to address them. You should also monitor your progress and evaluate your results. You can also ask for follow-up feedback to see if you have improved or if you need further guidance. Acting on feedback shows that you value it and that you are committed to your professional development.

4 Give feedback

The fourth step is to give feedback to others and create a culture of feedback in your workplace. Feedback is a two-way street, and you can benefit from giving feedback as much as receiving it. Giving feedback can help you build trust, rapport, and respect with your colleagues and supervisors. It can also help you develop your own skills, such as critical thinking, communication, and leadership. When you give feedback, you should be specific, constructive, timely, and respectful. You should also avoid giving feedback when you are emotional, biased, or unprepared.

5 Seek feedback

The fifth step is to seek feedback from external sources and expand your network. Sometimes, the feedback you get from your immediate work environment may not be enough or may not reflect the broader trends and standards in your field. Therefore, you should seek feedback from outside your organization, such as industry associations, professional journals, online forums, or conferences. You can also seek feedback from experts, mentors, or peers who have more experience or different perspectives than you. Seeking feedback from external sources can help you gain new insights, learn best practices, and discover new opportunities.

Feedback is not just related to your immediate working environment. Ask previous employers and co-workers about the possible issues they think could be occurring due to your history with them. They might be able to provide you with good concise and clear feedback due to your limited interaction with them. In some instances that feedback could be more honest than feedback in your current work environment.

6 Improve feedback

The sixth step is to improve feedback and make it more effective and meaningful. Feedback is not a one-time event or a static process. It is a dynamic and ongoing cycle that requires constant improvement and adaptation. Therefore, you should always look for ways to improve the quality, quantity, and frequency of feedback you receive and give. You can also seek feedback on your feedback, and ask for suggestions on how to make it more useful and relevant. Improving feedback can help you enhance your performance, satisfaction, and career prospects.

Time is money. The person you want feedback from is also busy with their own responsibilities. 1. Be patient 2. Make them aware you are expecting feedback. 3. Be pro-active by expanding on the issue you want feedback on
