Knowledge Sharing Breakfast: Feedback giving tools in the workplace

Pictures: by Jurgen Appelo ©

In Ciklum we believe that feedback in the workplace is key to bringing out the best in

your coworkers

We also believe in rewarding employees who do great things

What we don’t believe is traditional bonus schemes (i.e. paying for results) are the best

way to reward someone

Why?

Praising someone for their input in a project or team, doesn’t cost a penny, but

it’s one of the best ways to increase people’s happiness at work and

productivity

JURGEN APPELO’S SIX RULES FOR REWARDS

Don’t promise rewards in advance

Keep anticipated rewards small

Reward continuously

Reward publicly, not privately

Reward behavior, not outcome

Reward peers, not

subordinates

1. Don’t promise rewards in advance2. Keep anticipated rewards small3. Reward continuously4. Reward publicly, not privately5. Reward behavior, not outcome6. Reward peers, not subordinates

Improv Cards: feedback giving

through storytelling

1. Each person takes four random cards from the pile (Together, you can agree on fewer or more cards.)

2. One other random card, taken from the pile, goes in the middle, face up (You can put the other cards on the side, as you won’t be using them.)

3. Together, you agree on a context

e.g. “WORK-LIFE BALANCE”

4. In a random order, the participants then try to make associations between a card on the table and one of the cards in their hands, given the context they agreed on.

Let’s try it!
