10 Golden Rules of Giving Feedback

•  Give feedback on observed behaviour, not on perceived attitudes

•  Describe what you saw and felt, don’t make judgements

•  Focus on behaviour that can be changed

•  Select and stick to the most important issues

•  Ask questions rather than make statements

•  Set the ground rules in advance

•  Comment on positive issues too, not just negative

•  Observe everyone’s personal limits

•  Stick to the specific behaviour, don’t waffle vaguely

•  Before offering feedback, consider its value to the receiver
