Mastering Feedback to Maximize Performance (April 21, 2026 12:00 - 2:00 ET)
**We cannot guarantee that we will be able to add participants to the session roster who register less than 60 minutes before its start time.**
Session Summary:
Feedback is a powerful tool in a manager’s toolbox to boost employee motivation and improve performance. Yet, 65% of employees feel they are not getting enough of it. This isn’t a surprise given that a Harvard Business Review survey reported that 44% of managers believe giving feedback is stressful and 21% say that avoid giving it when possible. When they give feedback, the data suggests managers are using ineffective techniques and lacking the skill, missing opportunities to delegate to and empower employees to achieve successful results.
This 2-Hour LIVE interactive manager masterclass helps participants to master feedback skills to create a feedback-rich culture on their team and to dramatically improve employee performance and engagement. During the session, Dr. Jamie Lewis Smith will provide attendees with an overview and understanding of the power and importance of regular, behavioral feedback to drive exceptional results. Jamie will discuss feedback mistakes that managers commonly make and how to overcome them, and she will help them shift their mindset about feedback from something to be dreaded to a relationship norm. During the session the attendees will learn a framework for providing specific, behavioral, and actionable feedback, they will reflect on the importance of how they receive feedback, and they will gain skills for incorporating feedforward and appreciation into their ongoing conversations with employees.
Participants will have the opportunity to apply the tools to one of their employees and prepare for a real feedback conversation they will have after the session. They will leave the session with best practices and specific science-backed hacks that managers can apply right away to elevate their skills and make giving effective feedback a habit.
