The Kind of Feedback We Need to Thrive
Betterworks
The intelligent performance management solution that empowers your people to reach their highest potential.
Real-time, in-the-moment feedback is an essential element of performance enablement and can increase employee engagement. Yet, for many employees, it can be both difficult to request and receive feedback because it’s something that makes us vulnerable and requires us to deliver challenging messages at times.
Those conversations are worth the effort. According to Betterworks’ recent State of Performance Enablement report, 25% of employees never get feedback outside of their direct managers, and 42% of employees don’t receive feedback from colleagues more than once a quarter. Moreover, two-thirds of employees wish they had a better technology solution for giving and receiving feedback and recognition.?
You want your managers and peers to deliver feedback more often — and know how to give that feedback effectively.?

Master Giving and Receiving Feedback
We all need feedback to thrive — to learn what works, what doesn’t, and how we can improve. Getting work done requires team members who feel empowered to provide real-time, meaningful feedback to their colleagues. Elevate your culture and performance by promoting feedback across your organization.
The Value of Feedback
“Employees need assurance that they are safe to give and receive feedback without fear of retaliation. They need to be able to fail, fail quickly, and be afforded the tools to recover, change, and improve. The companies that are most successful at encouraging feedback, and getting the right kind, are those that invest in coaching both employees and managers on how to do so.”
