Unlock Growth Through Feedback & Feedforward: A Practical Workshop for Leaders
Live Online | 4-hour, Interactive, Intensive & Practical Workshop
This highly interactive workshop gives leaders practical strategies for delivering feedback that resonates and receiving it with openness. You’ll also learn how to use feedforward — a future-focused, empowering approach — to inspire growth, motivation, and lasting change. Expect to leave with renewed confidence and tools you can apply right away.
Feedback is more than evaluation — it’s one of the strongest drivers of learning, growth, and trust. When done well, it helps people recognize strengths, overcome blind spots, and reach higher performance; yet many leaders hold back, fearing discomfort or defensiveness. Feedforward shifts this dynamic, turning conversations from criticism into opportunity. Leaders who master both create cultures of openness, accountability, and continuous improvement — boosting not only individual performance but also collaboration, innovation, and resilience across teams.
Leaders who:
- want to strengthen their ability to give and receive feedback with clarity and impact
- aim to create a culture of trust, openness, and continuous development
- are curious to apply feedforward as a positive, forward-looking leadership tool
- value hands-on, interactive learning
Objectives
The programme aims to equip participants with practical skills and fresh perspectives on feedback and feedforward, while encouraging self-reflection on their current approach and creating inspiration for growth. It also provides a valuable opportunity to learn from peers and network.
After completing this course you will be able to:
- deliver feedback that is constructive, actionable, and motivating
- apply feedforward techniques to focus on future possibilities and development rather than past mistakes
- inspire team members to adopt a self-feedforward mindset
- build confidence in receiving feedback with openness and curiosity
- strengthen a team culture where honest conversations become enablers of trust, learning, and high performance
