Why building people's ability to receive and give honest feedback is the sole focus of feedback HQ.
AND WHY YOUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON IT
The question we began with was, “Why do only a subset of any profession truly excel?” Some people pointed to talent. Others suggested education. But science didn’t support either. What science did tell us is the ability to receive and utilize feedback, in all its forms, does more to drive an individual’s success than education, talent, or IQ.
Research published in dozens of peer-reviewed academic journals also taught us that the most powerful single influence leaders have on the achievement of others is through the quality, timing, and frequency of the feedback they give.
Furthermore, research also confirmed that feedback has a significant impact on employee engagement, retention, performance, customer satisfaction, and financial results. Regardless of the labels your company uses to describe its development programs (Leadership Development, Employee Development, Talent Development, or Performance Improvement), feedback is the key to success.
So, what’s not to love about feedback? (Oh, the horror stories people share with us in the classroom!) Whether you choose to use the terms honest feedback or constructive criticism, or the words positive feedback or praise, our goal at Feedback HQ is to help you and your organization reach new heights.

WIN with Feedback
Harness the Gift of Feedback and Bring your A-Game to life
The Three Keys to a Transformative Feedback Conversation
#1 Feedback receivers know how to find value in ALL feedback, regardless of who the giver is or their delivery style.
#2 Feedback givers know how to deliver candid feedback that communicates respect, fosters ownership, and supports change.
#3 Mutual respect is expected of both parties: both have a right to be heard.
ONE-DAY WORKSHOP OVERVIEW
Workshop Participants Will:
1. Solve the Mystery
Why do some individuals soar to success while others falter? Science tells us the answer lies not in innate talent or formal education, but in one’s ability to learn from feedback—the unsung hero of achievement.
2. Master the Art of Receiving Feedback
Master a simple yet powerful process for finding the gift in feedback, even when that feedback causes you pain, or when the giver is misinformed, unfair, and has the interpersonal skills of Atilla the Hun.
3. Discover the Transformative Power of Feedback
Learn why the quality, timing, and frequency of the feedback you provide is the x-factor in great leadership. Master a groundbreaking approach to giving feedback that will propel you, and those around you, to new heights.
4. Support Success, One Conversation at a Time
Learn how to initiate and navigate difficult feedback conversations in a way that strengthens relationships, fosters individual growth, promotes change, and improves team performance—all the while minimizing blowback from the receiver.

Our Approach to Learning
Our interactive and hands-on approach to learning ensures that you will leave with skills and actionable insights to accelerate employee growth, boost individual performance, foster teamwork, and improve business results.
Feedback: The Unsung Hero of Achievement
It’s impossible to bring your A-game to work—or anywhere else—without feedback. Whether referred to as criticism, advice, or simply feedback,
it can be a game changer.
That said, there’s a formidable barrier to harnessing the power of feedback: the fear of criticism. In WIN with FEEDBACK you will learn how to inoculate yourself against the fear of criticism, thereby un-locking your true potential. And as a leader, you will receive the tools you need to inoculate those around you against their fear of criticism, thereby unlocking their collective ingenuity and potential.
Master skills taught by experts who have brought these skills to Fortune 500 giants like 3M, Boeing, Microsoft, and Textron.
