Communication & Peer Feedback Skills
Duration 1 day
Course Overview
In the workplace, it is common nowadays for professionals from various fields to employ models of peer support and feedback in order to assist staff in sharing good practice and supporting each other's development. Though in no way meant to replace more formal managerial supervision and guidance, feedback from peers can give one insight into one's behaviour, performance and impact on others. Though there is the possibility of conflict, if the process is managed well, with clear expectations and shared commitment from all parties, peer feedback can provide an invaluable source of learning for most staff.
