HR Essentials: The Gift of Feedback
With Linda Strauss
Many leaders avoid addressing issues until the molehill has grown into a mountain, and most employees say they want more feedback than they get. This session reframes feedback as a gift you get to give rather than something to be avoided, and offers practical language and structure for the conversations leaders tend to dread: addressing a performance concern, redirecting a behavior, and recognizing good work in a way that actually lands. We'll also cover how to receive feedback well, because the leaders who do it best are usually the ones modeling it. You'll leave with words you can use right away, and comfortably.
Fundraising as Relationship Building: A Practical Training for Nonprofit Leaders
