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

The four part formula: The micro-yes, Data point, Show impact, and End on a question

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

It would definitely by the 'Show Impact' part of the formula

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

It's important to cultivate a feedback cutlure here because there is no such thing as perfect. We all have areas that we fall short in and requires improvement. By having a feedback culture, it will help us to build trust amongst each other, grow as a team, and overall make 7cups a positive experience for all

@CheeryMango

Love your reply here, Mango! Would you like to tell me a bit about what causes it to be the "show impact" part that you feel you could improve upon?

CheeryMango September 4th, 2020

@Aleks2 To answer the why portion of the question, there are times where I really don't pay much attention to the conversation going on or times I was only told half of the story. By me not paying attention or having the full story, it's difficult to say how it impacts me. A way I can improve this is by giving the person my full attention and asking them to fill in the gaps of their story, so that I can properly assess the situation and answer accordingly.

@CheeryMango

if one is not paying attention or having the full story, then it is difficult to say how it impacts.

@CheeryMango

Awesome answers! I too can improve on "showing impact" as it is difficult to analyze what is being impacted in the moment of giving somoene feedback.

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

1. The micro yes questions

2. Be specific

3. Impact Statement

4. Show Impact

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

I think that I will have to work on showing impact!

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

Having a feedback culture ensures that everyone in the community will be able to grow and become better. Like other people have said, no one is perfect! We may not realize somethings and by giving/getting feedback we're allowing ourselves to be the best we can be by contributing work that others have checked. Since we are human, we may also look over things by accident and with feedback culture, we're able to identify it!

heart Hello! How are you doing? heart

heart The parts are Micro-yes, Data Point, Show Impact, and End On A Question. heart

heart I could improve on the showing impact part, because I have a hard time taking myself into consideration. heart

heart If we don t improve, we just stay where we are. That isn t good. We can always improve to do a better job and be better in general. Because of the feedback, we can progress. We can grow. And we need to grow. heart
