How to Ask the Right Questions for Powerful Feedback

Share Post:

The importance of feedback for the success of leaders, employees, and companies has been highlighted in previous episodes of Shedding the Corporate Bitch, but this episode dives deeper into how leaders can get to the root issues that are affecting their team and impacting outcomes.

In this episode, I go over the role of feedback in a corporate setting and what I’ve learned during my coaching sessions, such as why so many leaders don’t seek feedback and why employees may be scared to give it.

I also provide specific questions you should be asking, and examples of how to have these vital conversations. 

With my tips, you’ll discover ways you can learn from the unique perspective of each team member, and give every single person the tools they need to succeed.

Tune in to take note of the dos and don’ts of seeking feedback, and even some powerful questions you might never think to ask!

TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE:

  • The reasons leaders don’t seek feedback
  • Dos and don’ts of seeking feedback
  • How to dive deep and get real answers
  • What questions you should be asking
  • How feedback can help you become a better leader

Do you need help defining the questions you need ask to ensure your team members actually share with you? Book a call with me and let’s talk! https://www.coachmebernadette.com/discoverycall
