Giving clear, constructive feedback is one of the most important parts of being a boss – and it’s also one of the toughest. It's easy to let concerns about “rocking the boat”, worrying about hurt feelings, and not knowing “how to do it” get in the way.

Whether you’re helping someone grow, managing poor performance, or addressing inappropriate behaviour, knowing how to give difficult feedback with confidence and clarity makes all the difference.

Join MyHR for an engaging and practical breakfast session, led by HR guru Sylvie Thrush Marsh, where we’ll cover the basics and go over some useful strategies for giving uncomfortable feedback at work.

In this workshop, you’ll learn:

  • How to recognise the right opportunities to give feedback

  • How to prepare yourself (and your mindset) before the conversation

  • Different strategies for delivering difficult feedback

  • Techniques for managing heightened emotions and tricky reactions in the moment

  • How to follow up to ensure lasting, positive outcomes

Date, time and location:

📅 Wednesday, 3 December | 7:15-8:45am

📍Mountain Club, Level 1, 85 Beach Street, Queenstown 9300
