Feedback

Shepherd University
To Develop
- Employees don’t always know what they don’t know.
- Even when they do know their deficiencies, they may not know
how to fix them. To Encourage
- Recognizing the right behaviors will encourage more of the same.
To Redirect
- Helping employees find a better way to do things can improve
future results.
- Feedback can help to bring an employee’s performance up to
speed.
- Feedback can help correct a poor habit – behavior, attitude,
competency.
Performance Feedback: Why?
10
Shepherd University
Consequences If Feedback Is Not Timely
- Employees might develop inaccurate perceptions
- f their performance.
- Employees poor performance becomes ingrained
through practice and repetition.
- Employees are deprived an opportunity to
improve their performance.
- Employees feel abandoned or ignored.
- Employees don’t feel valued.

Feedback: The SBI Model
- Situation
– When and where did the specific behavior occur?
- Behavior
– What were the specific behaviors that you observed?
- Impact
– What was the impact of the behavior on you and
- thers?
Use for both positive and constructive feedback.
12
Shepherd University
SBI Model Example - POSITIVE
- (S) While serving breakfast to students yesterday…
- (B) I saw you greeting some of the new students
and answering questions they had about their meal plan.
- (I) I appreciate that you took the time to make them
feel welcome. It showed that you really understand the importance of great customer service and the role you have in student retention.
13
Shepherd University
SBI Model Example - CONSTRUCTIVE
- (S) During the department meeting this morning, when I
asked John for an update on the team project…
- (B) You began to criticize John before he even finished
sharing the update with the team. Crossing your arms
- ver your chest, rolling your eyes, and looking beyond
John out the window indicated that you didn’t think much
- f what he had to say or his ideas.
- (I) John’s ideas had possible merit, and you didn’t hear
them through. Your behavior also inhibited others at the meeting from asking questions or offering up ideas.
