Ep 41: The #1 Way to Give Feedback During Class
Today on the podcast, Will is sharing a snackable, shorter episode dealing with one specific question that keeps coming up again and again and that is this: “How can I get participants to improve what they're doing? How can I give feedback in a way which actually lands with those people in my class that need it, and encourages them to improve on the things that they're doing to allow them to get better results?”
The good news? There is a really simple answer to this. Will is sharing the #1 tried and true way of delivering feedback and creating positive change during class for your participants. It’s known as a CRC and stands for “Connect”, “Recommend” and “Commend”. Listen to the full episode for Will’s tips for incorporating this feedback strategy into your classes today!
