I would support the team member to assess the feedback and categorise the comments into relevance and to the project in question. From there consider the merits of individual feedback in terms of usefulness and realistic application, prioritising those considered most relevant. Feedback is often opinion based and, while it is important to consider advice and comments from others, it is also crucial to balance external opinion with the original decisions and strategic aim of the project.

First and foremost feedback is a gift that one needs to cherish. Upon receiving feedback, ask which feedback from the feedback giver is more important in their opinion. Write all the feedback on a list, then mark them on impact/effort matrix to assist in prioritizing. The key is small steps and never biting off more than you can chew, as in committing to when you will act on the feedback, acknowledgment of feedback is key, then work on your own and see what you want and can act upon.

When a team member feels overwhelmed by feedback, I focus on clarity and prioritization. First, I help them break down the feedback into actionable categories: what's urgent, what’s valuable long-term, and what’s noise. Then, we align on the most critical areas to address and create a plan to tackle them step by step. I also remind them that feedback is a tool, not a judgment, and encourage them to approach it with curiosity rather than pressure. Supportive guidance and focus can turn a flood of feedback into a roadmap for growth.

Eine Flut an Feedback kann mehr schaden als nützen – sind wir in der Lage, Qualit?t vor Quantit?t zu stellen? Führungskr?fte sollten den Feedbackprozess aktiv moderieren, um sicherzustellen, dass Rückmeldungen relevant, klar und umsetzbar bleiben. Eine konkrete Methode ist die Einführung eines Feedback-Filters: Mitarbeitende priorisieren Rückmeldungen in einer einfachen Matrix aus Relevanz und Machbarkeit. Dies f?rdert Selbstreflexion und verhindert überforderung. Gleichzeitig sollten Führungskr?fte regelm?ssige Reflexionsgespr?che etablieren, um Kernfragen zu kl?ren und die Integration des Feedbacks zu begleiten. So entsteht ein konstruktiver Raum, der Wachstum statt Frustration f?rdert.

In my opinion, 1. Start by assisting them in categorizing the feedback into actionable, informational, and non-critical categories, which is the key factor 2. Encourage them to prioritize actionable feedback that aligns with immediate goals and break it into manageable steps. 3. Offer guidance in identifying patterns to focus on key areas of improvement rather than addressing every detail. 4. Since not all feedback needs immediate action, we need to support them in setting realistic timelines
