Leadership

Feedback should not only reflect, but also make a difference. But what exactly makes feedback effective? When does it trigger development – and when does it fall on deaf ears, get rejected or even have a counterproductive effect? In many leadership situations, feedback is seen as a duty rather than an active leadership tool.

This young talent circle focuses on the creative dimension of feedback: as a means of taking responsibility, as an invitation to self-reflection – and as a catalyst for real change. Participants reflect on their own attitudes, examine the effectiveness of their previous feedback practices and expand their scope for action.

  • Learn how to use feedback in a targeted manner to promote development processes – individually, team-related and culturally.
  • Discover the role of attitude, context and timing in the effectiveness of feedback – especially in challenging or recurring situations.
  • Differentiate between feedback for orientation, activation or confrontation – and consciously choose the appropriate mode.
  • Sharpen your understanding of leadership as a responsibility for development – even where change is uncomfortable or meets with resistance.

This format makes feedback a strategic tool in everyday leadership. Participants gain confidence in dealing with difficult feedback situations, recognise patterns in their own effectiveness and strengthen their role as catalysts for change.
