Student is ready when the teacher is ready, and vice-versa. Feedback is only good when the recipient is receptive. Also, it's best to have the session done over coffee in a nice setting. It's always about the people, and never the matter.

Be genuine. Make sure your feedback comes from a genuine care for the other person and for the partnership as a whole. When you are open and honest and the other person feels that you truly care about them they will be much more open to feedback, even if it's tough to hear at the time!

To provide feedback that strengthens a partnership, first build trust by fostering the relationship well ahead of time. This ensures they value your opinion when feedback is needed. Be straightforward and blunt, so the feedback is clear, but deliver it kindly to avoid defensiveness. Always offer a few potential solutions alongside the issue, showing you're invested in helping solve the problem together. This reinforces collaboration rather than criticism. Finally, make sure your feedback ties into shared goals, so they see the value in addressing the points raised for mutual success.

Feedback is an essential part of progress. However, forward-looking feedback, be it positive or negative, may impact morale. It may also come out as condescending. When needed, it's best to initiate the need for mutual feedback and chime in when the time's right.

Forneça feedback claro e equilibrado, focando em fatos, sugerindo soluções, ouvindo o parceiro e reforçando o compromisso com a colaboração.

Lead with the good good stuff: Start with what’s working-it’s like giving a warm-up hug before the constructive part. Keep It clear and team focused: Be specific and make it about “us” solving things together. No vague hints; we’re not in a mystery novel! Wrap with appreciation: End on a positive note, showing gratitude. Think of it as sealing the deal with a smile, it’s feedback, not a breakup!

Seja específico e objetivo, focando em ações futuras e mantendo o feedback construtivo e prático. Em vez de tornar o feedback algo pontual, crie um canal de diálogo aberto para conversas sobre expectativas e objetivos. Entenda o perfil do parceiro adaptando o tom de voz e técnicas de acordo. A escuta ativa aqui é importante : permita que o parceiro compartilhe sua visão, criando um ambiente de confiança e valorização mútua. Com isso, a parceria se torna mais adaptável e evolui continuamente com base em transparência e colaboração.

When giving feedback in a partnership, focus on being constructive and respectful. Start by acknowledging the value your partner brings, then offer specific, actionable suggestions rather than criticism. Use "I" statements to express how something affects you, avoiding blame. Be open to their perspective and encourage dialogue. Timing matters, so choose a moment when both can reflect calmly. By framing feedback as an opportunity for growth, you show commitment to the partnership’s success, reinforcing trust and collaboration.

Personalities often lie at the heart of what challenges partnerships, but partnership communication often falls down around personal conflict. Make the problem to be solved the issue and encourage everyone's common commitment your starting point. Looping back in your communication to "why we're here" is key to maintaining happy momentum. Communicate about visions of success vs. process where possible. And focus on work over personalities/people. After all, people get promoted or move on from jobs. When you give feedback, take into account where people's interests are - both institutional and personal. Help your partners with language they can use - safely - to mobilize their constituents, bosses and community.
