What is the four-part formula that you can use to say any difficult message well?

The Micro-yes, Data point, show impact, End on a question.

Which one of these parts do you think you could improve on and do better for yourself "and why"?

I could improve on the Data point part as I often use blur words in order to make the feedback softer.

Why do you think it's so important to cultivate a feedback culture here on 7 Cups?

Feedback is really very important as it helps us to learn, grow and improve as a community.

Hi @Heather225

1. The Four-Part Formula for Giving Feedback:

The micro-yes | Data point | Show impact | End on a question

2. Which one of these parts do you think you could improve on and do better for yourself "and why"?

I’d like to be mindful of all the four-part formula to make feedback can be delivered efficiently for effective improvements. But mostly, I’d choose The micro-yes to improve. Because it turns out this is an important part to deliver brain-friendly feedback.

3. Why do you think it's so important to cultivate a feedback culture here on 7 Cups?

Because:

1. Feedback culture supports high expectations, accountability and self-efficacy culture

2. Feedback culture provides a room to learn and grow for everyone.

Cheers!💖

Data Point. I need to work on being direct with my words and also to be specific about the problem. I tend to use blur words because I am afraid of an argument from the other party.

Creating a feedback culture on 7 Cups is vital. People grow and progress by working on their faults. Without feedback, one will not know the areas they need to improve on, and also the aspects in which they are strong in.

Which one of these parts do you think you could improve on and do better for yourself "and why"?

I could work on "data point". The reason for this is because I often use other words to cover things up so it won't sound mean or strick, but with this I can use what the person said and repeat that back to them.

Why do you think it's so important to cultivate a feedback culture here on 7 Cups?

I think it is important because it helps our community grow. Without feedback how would we be able to improve on things or even know if we need something that needs worked on. Giving feedback once again helps the community grow a lot, it improves the people within 7 cups so they can better support or help others.

- I think I should improve on data point and showing impact.

Why do you think it's so important to cultivate a feedback culture here on 7 Cups?

- It is important to cultivate a feedback culture because, there is sometimes a difference between how we percieve we are progressing and how others see us progressing and more ofthen than not people who have already walked the path we are walking have a vision from the top and they can better see things with the perspective of experience. And therefore a feedback will help us grow and also create a culture of helping and holding each other to a higher expectation and also sharing the feedback or asking for feedback will improve us as a community.

4. End on a question

- Which one of these parts do you think you could improve on and do better for yourself "and why"?

It would be a data point because, I realized I often use blur words which can lead to a wrong idea because of the difference of perspective in both sides.

Feedback culture in really important for our growth both as an individual and as a community. Because of regularly receiving feedback we can better understand the areas where we need to improve ourselves also, good feedback can encourage us and help us realize that we are making progress and doing a good job.

Actually initiating the process of providing feedback with step 1. I struggle to provide feedback because I don’t want to hurt someones’ feelings but these steps will give me a framework to get started.

I guess all of them! I had no idea about this technique until now! Will be using it going foward!

Feedback creates an honest reflection.. We need to know what we have done right and wrong..... Otherwise theres no room to grow, learn and adapt.
