Feedback sessions

We have planned every chapter to be self-contained. Each commences with a general overview, before the core material is presented in depth this is followed by a list of questions that should prove useful for both students and their lecturers. Finally, there are several key articles, followed by a list of further references. Many of the chapters in this book have been tested out on our students. Not only did they report that the chapters were all excellent (in feedback sessions that were obviously not blind ) they also informed us that they particularly liked this reference format. They found it useful when writing essays, preparing projects and, most importantly, when cramming for exams. 

In addition, the necessary understanding, motivation, and capabilities have to be created to ensure sustainability and continuous improvement by means of formal training as well as personnel development planning supported by regular coaching and feedback sessions. 

A Holding only one evaluation session each year may cause unnecessary anxiety for both the supervisor and the employee. Consider a couple of options. First, less formal monthly or quarterly feedback sessions can provide valuable input in a less stressful manner. Anofher option is to ask the employee to create measurable performance sfandards af fhe beginning of the evaluation period and to provide periodic progress reports. 

Two important points. First, during a feedback session, the members of the filmmaking team should be quiet. Don t answer questions, offer explanations, or defend any aspect of the filmmaking. You are...

Failing to conduct regular weekly feedback sessions. People are busy and stretched for time. The resulting perception is that management does not value the behavioral safety process, creating lack of buy-in. 

For the next iteration of the feedback, we created a refined event proposal that would be shown to different parties for their feedback (sponsors, student participants, and mentors). We attended the Students for Education Reform (SFER) State Summit and led a session where these potential users were allowed to share their impressions and critiques of the proposal. The key to user feedback is that the more involved in the development of your product a person is, the more likely they are to jump on board and attend or advocate for the product. The sununit also opened pathways to future meetings with Massachusetts Representative Jeffrey Sanchez and Massachusetts Secretary of Education Matthew Malone to leverage potential resources between their office and my event. These comments from user feedback sessions were later used to create a tighter value proposition for sponsor recruitment. 

Employees have personal development plans (created via personal feedback sessions). 

Once all the documentation has been reviewed and systems are verified, a feedback session and presentation is held with aU concerned parties. Here the auditors give feedback to the strengths and weaknesses of the program and allocate a percentage score to the entire safety system. 

The training programme should be planned, where necessary, to take account of this and may require the training to be delivered in stages, with reinforcement and feedback sessions to confirm the learning. 

Where on a CBC does an observer record these unanticipated conditions, events, and behaviors so crucial to a constructive, behavior-based conversation Every CBC should have a place for comments (see, for example. Figures 8.10 and 8.12). Here is where the observer records any observations that might be useful in a one-to-one feedback session or a group discussion. The quality of a completed CBC usually increases with the number of useful comments. 

Each month, employees schedule a behavioral observation and feedback session with two other employees, who are safety observers. They select the task, day, and time for the coaching session, as well as two individuals to observe them. Employees choose their observers—and coaches—from anyone in the plant. At the start of their process, the number of volxmteer safety coaches was limited to about 30 percent of the workforce, but today everyone is a potential coach. 

At first, some employees did not completely trust the process and resisted active participation. Some tried to beat the system by scheduling observation and feedback sessions at slow times when the chance of an at-risk behavior was minimal—such as when watching a monitor or completing paperwork. Today, most employees choose to schedule their coaching sessions during active times when the probability of an at-risk behavior is highest. 

The coaching process detailed in Chapter 12 also discussed how to develop and apply both generic and job-specific checklists for one-on-one observation and feedback sessions with coworkers (see Figures 12.9 and 12.10). As mentioned previously, using a behavioral checklist to observe and evaluate ongoing work practices is the type of performance appraisal that can lead to continuous improvement.
