What the Research Shows
On high performance teams, the ratio of positive to negative feedback is 5.6 to 1.
- Losada & Heaphy, 2004
Your Assignment:
Create a system to increase the amount of positive feedback given and received by your team
on a daily basis.
Questions:
- If increasing positive feedback by 50% by year-end were the objective, how would you implement it? What would be the tasks and milestones on your project plan?
- What system can you create to "collect" positive feedback for yourself? How can you make it easier for others to recognize you for your contributions?
- To whom do you owe a thank you? Identify 3 people who contributed to your success at work over the past month and find a way to express your appreciation to them.
