Why Good Feedback Gets Ignored
You gave clear feedback, the person nodded, and a week later nothing had changed. Or they took it so hard that you wished you had said nothing. In both cases the feedback was probably correct. It arrived in a form that person could not use.
Each DISC style listens for something different in feedback. A D listens for whether you respect them and whether the point matters. An I listens for whether you still like them. An S listens for whether they are safe. A C listens for whether you are right. Answer that question early, and the person can listen to the rest of what you say.
This lesson shows you how to order and word feedback for each style, at work and at home, including feedback to your own boss. You will also see how to praise each style, because each style believes a different kind of praise.
Useful feedback names one behavior, one effect and one next step. The style of the listener decides the order and the tone of those three parts.
