Ok, so you’re in a management or leadership position and you think you’re doing a good job. How much better do you want to be?
Assuming you want to get even better than you already are, getting input from those around you is crucial. That’s where 360 feedback is so valuable.
Of course you have to be open to receiving feedback otherwise you may only listen to the positives and dismiss (or worse still argue against) the ‘negatives’. Anyone with a decent level of self respect and respect for others will receive the feedback for what it is though….a gift. Something you can do something with to allow you to get better.
So, Marshall Goldsmith – the world’s #1 executive coach – has 5 simple questions that your manager, your peers, your team members and colleagues can all answer about you. Imagine getting this kind of insight about yourself from all of those around you with whom you work.
- What do you like best about Craig?
- What do you like least about Craig?
- What situations bring out the best in Craig?
- What situations bring out the worst in Craig?
- If you could offer Craig any advice in any area, what would that be?
How’s that for exploding your level of self-awareness? Imagine working in a business that gave you that kind of insight into YOU?
As we say here at ActionCOACH “to grow a business you first must grow people”.
Feedback is the breakfast of champions.
Here’s to your continued growth!
