Workshop: The power of feedback

What exactly is effective feedback? And how can I use the power of giving and receiving feedback to my advantage? In this activity-based workshop led by a professional trainer with a background in theater we will focus on the fine art of asking for and giving effective feedback. And since feedback is a two-way communication, both giving and receiving, participants will work actively to be able to provide and ask for consistent and effective feedback through practice.,

The workshop offers participants the opportunity to recognize how their behavior/communication is perceived by others. Constructive feedback from the trainer and group members provides the speaker with a good amount of information as she practices new ideas,

creative methods, and techniques to improve the quality of her speech and define what is effective feedback.

Throughout the two-day workshop, the participants will be guided through interactive exercises to improve non-verbal communication, enhance listening skills and generous feedback, as well as focusing techniques that will empower the speaker. Attention will also be given to structural and

linguistic aspects to improve the clarity and fluency of the talk, with the opportunity to practice giving and asking for feedback effectively using different methods.

Please note: Participants should prepare a 3 to 5 minute overview of their work for the workshop; the use of slides is optional. This will serve as a basis for applying the practical objectives of the workshop.
