For the uninitiated, searching for things online might seem like magic. You type a few words in the search bar, click a button, and voila!—the answers to your questions are right at your fingertips.

Giving & Receiving Feedback
The benefits of feedback in the workplace are many. However, feedback needs to be given and received effectively. Giving effective feedback means achieving the desired results while, at the same time, making sure that all parties involved are respected. Receiving feedback effectively means making the most of feedback and seeing it as a learning opportunity, rather than as a personal attack.
Giving and receiving feedback is important both for constructive feedback (whereby you seek to change or improve behavior) and positive feedback (for reinforcing good behavior).
The good news is that giving and receiving feedback is a skill that people can learn.
Training your employees and managers on giving and receiving feedback effectively at work can reap many benefits.
