Included with the Thrive Platform, flat per organization. Courses set the language; live workshops are where the skill is built.

Who it is for

Managers who avoid or soften hard feedback, and supervisors who want to develop people through everyday coaching rather than only correcting mistakes.

What you will learn

  • Give specific, behavior-based feedback instead of vague praise or criticism
  • Deliver constructive feedback in a way the person can hear and act on
  • Ask coaching questions that help someone find their own solution rather than handing them yours
  • Make feedback a regular habit so it is not saved up for the annual review

What changes on the job

  • Team members act on feedback because it is specific and timely
  • Fewer difficult issues left to fester until review season
  • Direct reports who solve more problems on their own

This course is one part of the mix. The same topic runs as a live workshop where a facilitator who has held the role watches you practice, and Coach Taylor follows up afterward.

Talk to ARIA

Ask what you would ask us.

ARIA works the way a good first call works. She asks who is involved and what should change, recommends the closest starting point, quotes the real price, and hands you to a person when you want one.

Questions

Questions about this course.

What is the difference between coaching and feedback here?

Feedback tells someone how their work landed. Coaching helps them think it through and improve. The course covers both because good managers move between them in the same conversation.

How long is the course?

About 20 minutes, self-paced, included with the Thrive platform for every employee of the organization.

Can I rehearse a specific feedback conversation?

Yes. A live workshop or an AI coaching session is a good place to practice wording a real piece of feedback before you deliver it.
