Tyler Enslin: "Effective Feedback"
Creating a culture that embraces frequent candid feedback is essential to the growth of both individuals and organizations. Without it, productivity falls, communication becomes ineffective, and ultimately employee engagement and retention suffer. Although these facts are well known, many still avoid feedback because it can by nature be uncomfortable or even feel personal at times. In this highly interactive training, participants will be equipped with specific skills to deliver even challenging feedback in a way that is both effective and empathetic. Also, attendees of this program will learn specific techniques to receive feedback in a way that allows them to manage their internal and external responses, and as a result gain value from each exchange. While this topic is of particular interest to those in leadership roles, the concepts discussed in this training are essential for employees of all levels to implement.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the 3 most common barriers that hinder feedback or make it ineffective
- Contribute to a culture where feedback happens naturally by applying 2 core principles
- Learn 8 techniques to deliver virtually any feedback effectively
- Identify opportunities to share positive feedback with greater frequency and meaning
- Learn 5 techniques when receiving feedback to manage reactions and gain value
- Develop individual action steps to implement skills into working relationships
About Tyler Enslin
As a professional speaker since 2012, Tyler has had the privilege to present at over 1,000 live events. A determined entrepreneur from day one, he started his first business at the age of 17. While growing a small business into a successful enterprise proved to be an exciting challenge, by 2011 he was ready for a new endeavor. Tyler sold his business and went to work as a salesperson for a national training company where he became immersed in the field of public speaking. Initially a source of fear and nervousness, Tyler ultimately grew to love both public speaking and the professional development industry. As a result he soon became the top sales person in the organization, and eventually went on to hold the positions of regional and national director. In January 2018, he returned to the world of business ownership and launched Tyler Enslin International where he focuses full time on providing engaging practical content to audiences around the world. Tyler has been privileged to speak for hundreds of different organizations and companies ranging from Fortune 500 to small local businesses. He has also been a Talent Management Consultant for Johns Hopkins University since 2016 where he enjoys teaching a regular schedule of workshops to help promote the growth and development of their employees. Tyler views each event as a unique opportunity to help his participants and therefore he has a reputation for being relatable, engaging, and delivering a high level of practical value.
