Live Discussion
Giving honest feedback can be one of the toughest things for a nonprofit manager or employee to do.
Yet constructive criticism can set an employee on the path to success and improve relationships and productivity.
How do you decide when feedback is necessary, and how do you give feedback that people want to hear? What are some smart ways to clear the air with your boss, employee, or co-worker? How can you become comfortable with giving frequent and honest feedback?
What follows is a transcript of a live online discussion that focuses on the best ways to improve communications among everyone who works at a nonprofit.
