How did you prepare for the conversation?

We learned in this session that with redards to your feedback, what you meant to say and how what you said is interpreted can be very different things. I prepared for this conversation by thinking about the feedback that I want to give and then I went another level deeper and thought about how to more effectively communicate that feedback in such a way that it isn't misconstrued.

How did the conversation go for you? What was easy about the conversation? What was more difficult?


When I finally had the feedback conversation with my partner things went really well. I had thought through the feedback I was going to give and because of that I was able to convey it without issue. The easiest part of the conversation was giving the positive feedback for the obvious reason that it had no potential to be hurful or taken personally. The difficult part was giving the critical feedback.

What principles of feedback did you use in the conversation?

In the conversation I used a few different principles of feedback. The first one was active listening. When I gave my feedback I then listened to what my partner had to say about the situation without interruptions or distractions. This was helpful in my understanding of the circunstances surrounding my feedback. I also put myself in the other persons shoes to come to a better understanding of why they did what they did to warrant the feedback.
