Fearless Feedback

Deliver feedback with confidence (€299 + VAT)

Why fearless feedback?

Did you know that almost 2/3 of employees feel they don't get enough feedback? (Report)

Feedback is the cornerstone of personal and team growth, yet many leaders in tech hesitate to give it for fear of backlash or misunderstanding. You might have found yourself thinking:

  • "I don't want to upset someone."
  • "I don’t want to make someone angry."
  • "I don't want to make the situation worse."

The problem is that individuals and teams can't improve without feedback, and issues remain unresolved. This course will give you the tools to overcome your fear and confidently offer feedback that leads to growth. Drawing from my experiences coaching and teaching leaders in tech, I’ll share practical techniques, stories, and tools to help you deliver feedback fearlessly.

By learning to give fearless feedback, you'll enhance your leadership skills, improve your work environment, reduce misunderstandings, and accelerate personal and team growth.
