Work Based Feedback
Personal objectives which are associated to the job specific objectives for every person or
staff member. Personal objectives are very important because it will help me to include every
factor which is important for me to enhance my skills. There are four kinds of constructive
feedback which is negative feedback positive feedback negative feed forward and positive feet
forward. Negative feedback helps me to correct my comments about my past behavior. Positive
feedback will support motivate me about my past behavior. Negative feed forward correct my
comments to improve myself for future performance and positive feet forward again motivate me
about my future performance and behavior (Lewis and Thompson, 2017). So I will going to take
feedback from my subordinates and manager about my performance that will improve in past
months. As if I got negative feedback then work on them in order to get more opportunities and
if I get positive feedback then it is very helpful for me to establish a culture of feedback and to
motivate me and guide me to improve myself. I will not going to demoralize if I got negative
feedback then I will going to work more hard (Luitel, 2018).
