Book: No More Feedback

via Olamina Free: You might want to look at Carol Sanford’s book No More Feedback. Interesting framework as alternative to feedback.

Carol Sanford: No More Feedback: Cultivate Consciousness at Work

From the book’s page:

Peer Review is the Foundation for Measuring Employee Performance

But does it help employees realize their full potential? Does feedback improve a company’s bottom line?

No More Feedback: Cultivate Consciousness at Work, book one in Carol Sanford’s new Toxic Practice book series disrupts commonly held beliefs to reveal:

• Why feedback undermines employee development
• The impact feedback has on our 3 core human capabilities
• The alternative that leads to self-regulating employees

Utilizing examples from Carol’s decades of work, learn the flaws in the feedback trap and build conditions for employees to flourish for long-term success.

(My take: This is certainly a controversial take, perhaps intentionally provocative. I’m not sold, but I’m curious. Saving link for (maybe?) reading later. Given that it was raised in a Mastodon thread about how to de-escalate a heated discussion, I find it potentially interesting.)
