Do you have a healthy feedback culture characterised by psychological safety and honest relationships?

A strong feedback culture does not emerge on its own. It requires conscious practice and reflection, especially from leaders, to become better at both giving and receiving feedback. This includes having the courage to examine structural power, personal blind spots, performance, and how relationships influence dialogue.

When feedback is used effectively, it becomes a tool for learning and development rather than control. Here are seven questions that can turn feedback into a genuine growth tool:

· What is working well that I could benefit from doing more of?

· What could I do differently in our collaboration?

· How can we strengthen our communication?

· What strengths do you see in me that I could use more actively?

· How can I contribute to strengthening the team culture?

· What do you need from me in order to perform at your best?

· What can I do to develop further as a leader?
