Feedback is another critical element of the performance management process. Telling people when they are working well or when there is some room for improvement takes professionalism, tact, and an intent to help your employees grow both personally and professionally.

While some of us (supervisors and employees alike) enjoy the principle, “No news is good news,” people actually want to know how there are doing. Embracing an atmosphere of frequent, meaningful feedback allows you to leverage a significant way to keep people interested in their job.
