What is Feedback?

What makes feedback effective?

• Makes information useful to others

• Encourages individuals to replicate and improve performance

• Is developmental in nature

• Is behaviorally anchored

Information you receive in response to actions or behaviors you have taken or have

demonstrated to others

feedback

You already know how to:

• Tell people what they did well

• Tell people what they did not do well

• Tell people what to start or stop doing

sbi is an approach that: • Expands the person’s self-awareness

• Focuses on behavior

• Is less likely to trigger defensiveness

The Situation – Behavior – Impact (SBI)™ Feedback Model

Situation • The specific event or circumstance

• Anchors the feedback in time and place

• Helps the recipient remember and understand the context

• Mirrors back the behavior to the recipient

• Behaviors are things that can be recorded — visually or aurally

• Observable actions

• Verbal comments

Example:

“When you presented our March sales figures to the senior management team last Thursday,…”

Example:

“...you provided details when making your point and you answered tough questions directly...”

Behavior

Describes the effect their behavior had:

• On me

• On the task

• On the group

Example:

“…consequently, the CEO approved the plan and gave it full funding.”

Impact

Identifying Behaviors

If you didn’t identify any, then you are right on track. None of the phrases in the list describe a behavior. Behaviors are actions that people take or things that they say. In contrast, the above list includes judgments about the person or adjectives that describe a person - not the person’s actions.

To understand how difficult identifying behaviors can be, look over the following list and identify the phrases that describe behaviors:

• Overconfident

• Very aggressive

• Needs to be less tactical and more strategic

• Arrogant

• Analytical; extremely logical in their approach

• Good team player who cares about the people in their department

• Extremely productive

• Excellent all-around manager

• Decisive

Examples of behaviors:

• Finishing other people’s sentences

• Proposing a process to the group

• Soliciting and asking for input from individuals

• Speaking when someone else is talking

• Interrupting those who are speaking

• Asking questions

• Leaning forward in one’s chair during a conversation

• Pacing back and forth

• Not speaking in a group

• Telling a joke during a serious conversation

• Speaking loudly or softly

• On the phone during a meeting

• Checking on the wellbeing of others

• Rolling eyes

Guidelines for Giving and Receiving SBI Feedback

Giving SBI Feedback Receiving SBI Feedback

• Select a comfortable, distraction-free environment for both you and the intended recipient.

• Feedback is an initial step in a developmental conversation. Show you care about the recipient throughout the exchange.

• Pace your feedback to ensure the recipient has time to absorb and respond to one piece of feedback before moving to the next. Allow for more than one session if needed.

• Give space for recipients to ask clarifying questions, so they can better understand and absorb the feedback.

• Avoid making suggestions for behavioral changes, unless requested. If none are requested, ask if the recipient would appreciate suggestions as part of the developmental conversation.

• If the feedback is part of an ongoing developmental conversation, seek ways to support the recipient on any actions they plan to take and to follow up with them on those plans.

• After giving a piece of feedback, ask open- ended questions in order to initiate a developmental conversation such as, “How might you have created the impact you intended?”

• Make it a developmental experience for yourself. Discuss the feedback process with the recipient and ways in which to improve it.

• Embrace a growth mindset.

• Listen attentively with gratitude.

• Ask clarifying questions and eventually paraphrase the feedback you hear to demonstrate that you grasp the feedback.

• Avoid explaining your behaviors (at least initially; however, this may come out in a developmental conversation following the feedback).

• Avoid becoming defensive about the feedback you are receiving; assume the feedback is well-intentioned and targeted at helping you develop.

• When you have fully absorbed the feedback, thank the person giving you feedback and ask for suggestions to help your growth.

• Make seeking, giving, and receiving feedback part of your own practice.

• LISTEN, LISTEN, LISTEN!

• Understanding does not equal agreement

• It’s OK to ask questions for clarification

• Resist the temptation to defend, justify, explain

• Treat it as a gift

Pointers: Feedback

• It’s a skill – and like any skill it takes practice

• People expect it

• People don’t get enough of it

• It’s difficult, so we resist giving it

• It can be a powerful tool for development

• Lead others by modeling this approach yourself

Feedback Do’s

• Ask permission to give feedback

• Be specific about the situation

• Describe the behavior (what would you see on a video?)

• Acknowledge the impact of the behavior

• Pay attention to nonverbal behavior (body language, facial expression, gestures, voice volume, tone and speed)

Feedback Don’ts

• Don’t delay or avoid talking about it

• Don’t be vague

• Don’t interpret, judge, or assume

• Don’t give advice unless requested

When You Are DELIVERING Your Feedback: When You Are RECEIVING Your Feedback:

• Stick to SBI – focus on the situation, the behavior, and the impact (no long backstory or lengthy explanations)

• Be totally honest and totally kind

• Listen first

• Ask questions only for clarification

• Understanding does not equal agreement

• Do not defend or justify

• You own it

• Thank your feedback giver
