Leadership GPS: Constructive Feedback

Thursday, March 22, 2012 at 7:26PM

Your father-son duo, Tony and Alan Jackson, join us on our newest installment of Leadership GPS to discuss the importance of constructive feedback. We’re talking about getting rid of the more familiar term, criticism, and discussing why feedback is the essential component in building strong leaders who are invested in the success of their employees and peers. Abandoning the “sandwich approach” of complimenting, criticizing and complimenting again, Leadership GPS discusses how a straightforward discussion of constructive feedback can help shape the character, work ethic and success of those striving to reach the top.
