Reviews for Using Feedback in Organizational Consulting
“Whatever managerial role you serve as a psychologist, this book will strengthen your supervisory, consultative, and training skills. The authors are well attuned to virtually every factor that constitutes feedback, be it the characteristics of the feedback provider and recipient, communication style, when and how feedback is given, and the influence of power-hierarchy on feedback effectiveness. And as the book makes eminently clear, performance feedback works best when the people involved like, trust and respect each other, a definitive admonition if there ever was one.” – New England Psychologist “Well-written, comprehensive, and accessible.” - PsycCRITIQUES
