Feedback can shape careers, fuel growth, and build stronger teams, but only when delivered with purpose, clarity, and empathy. That’s why Bigger Brains developed Giving Feedback, a course designed to help managers and professionals master the art of delivering feedback in a way that truly makes a difference. Most people agree that feedback is essential, yet many avoid giving it altogether. This course tackles that hesitation head-on and guides you through practical strategies to create a feedback culture rooted in trust, openness, and forward momentum. Whether navigating difficult conversations or offering everyday guidance, this course shows you how to transform feedback into a powerful tool for development and connection.
Throughout the course, you’ll explore the real goal of giving feedback and examine how it differs from coaching and performance management. You’ll identify why so many leaders avoid giving feedback and learn how to overcome those barriers by building a positive environment where feedback feels normal, expected, and valued. You’ll discover how to determine the right frequency and formality for giving feedback and prepare your team to receive input with a growth mindset. The course walks you through a structured feedback model that helps you prepare and deliver your message effectively while exploring the skills that separate helpful feedback from comments that miss the mark. You’ll recognize the signs of ineffective feedback and learn how to avoid common pitfalls that can damage trust or clarity. As you build these skills, you’ll also learn to spot pushback and resistance when it arises and develop strategies to respond with empathy and confidence.
