It's so interesting we provide training and support for this providing coaching yet we seem to lose sight of the fact people receiving coaching & feedback also need to be trained & supported in their reception. What a great opportunity. Here are two charts we did  from polls on linkedin that are quite revealing:

Poll # 1: If employees were taught how to accept feedback & coaching as well as attended practice sessions to do so what would be the result?

Would help tremendously 62%

Would help a great deal 25%

Would somewhat help 8%

Would have little impact 4%

Poll # 2: If leaders were taught / retrained how to provide strength-based & constructive feedback what would the effect be on the workplace culture?

Would be tremendously helpful 76%

It would be helpful 22%

Somewhat helpful 3%

Would have little impact 0%
