27. Rethinking Performance Feedback with Dr. Sandra Mashihi and Dr. Kenneth M. Nowack
Good feedback fuels performance and behavior change. Poor feedback does the opposite. It’s one of the most powerful tools in a leader’s toolkit, yet one of the hardest to get right. In this episode, Dr. Ken Nowack and Dr. Sandra Mashihi unpack why feedback often fails, and how L&D can help leaders build the skills to deliver it in ways that actually drive results. From the neuroscience of feedback to practical models like the 3E framework and 4-quadrant approach, Ken and Sandra offer L&D professionals a clear path to elevating feedback across the organization.   What You'll hear:  How to move beyond feedback systems to personal connections.  Addressing the gap between leader and employee perspectives on feedback. A 4-quadrant model that provides guidelines for personalized performance feedback.  The neuroscience behind both successful and painful feedback. The 3Es of effective performance feedback: Enlighten, Encourage, Enable.  Cultural considerations for feedback.   About Dr. Sandra Mashihi Dr. Sandra Mashihi is a distinguished Organizational Psychologist, keynote speaker, and author with over 20 years of experience.
