Giving and Receiving Feedback: Powerful Tools for Leadership Success

True or false?

• Feedback is proven to be a waste of time, with no material impact on the bottom line.

• Effective managers give more negative feedback than positive.

• Feedback for CEOs and senior leaders should come strictly from superiors.

• I am very knowledgeable about how I am perceived by others in my organization.

Answer? They are all false! (Even the last one). Why? Come join us at the PPC Women's Leadership Council meeting and find out! The lively session will be filled with the latest research as well as opportunities for group learning and real-world application. You will emerge more confident and capable in giving and receiving useful feedback.
