The Power of Feedback

35 Principles for Turning Feedback from Others into Personal and Professional Change

By: Joseph R. Folkman

Praise for The Power of Feedback "Some books are worthy of being recommended simply because of their subject matter. . . . There is no greater force to improve the quality of human relationships or improve the way organizations function than to multiply the amount and improve the quality of feedback." "Other books are worthy of being recommended . . . when an author takes an otherwise abstract, obtuse subject and turns it into an actionable, practical set of things to do. Joe Folkman has accomplished that task . . . helping individuals and organizations to develop feedback-rich environments . . . [and] change through the use of a variety of surveys and feed?-back instruments. He has made this topic highly engaging and accessible." "So, here you have the best of everything--an important topic; a talented, entertaining, and highly qualified author; content that is practical; and a text written in an easily comprehended manner. Enjoy." --From the Foreword by John H. "Jack" Zenger "Joe Folkman has years of experience and miles of wisdom from coaching and training high-performance organizations. He speaks truth: change is hard. But feedback can be very powerful if the receiver makes the commitment to lasting change. Folkman has scored a home run with The Power of Feedback." --Maria Nalywayko Senior Vice President, Human Resources, Fremont Investment & Loan "Most of us are clueless when it comes to providing feedback. But now, thanks to Joe Folkman's The Power of Feedback, we have a road map for turning the feedback we receive into lasting and profound change." --Jeffrey Gill Director of Organization Capability, The Coca-Cola Company

The Trifecta of Trust

The Proven Formula for Building and Restoring Trust

By: Joseph R. Folkman

The Proven Formula for Gaining and Maintaining Trust as a Leader In Trifecta of Trust, psychometrics and leadership expert Joseph R. Folkman has collected a mountain of compelling data to make the irrefutable case for the value of trust in leadership. His research shows that there are three core behaviors that create and reinforce trust from others. By mastering this leadership trust trifecta, you can increase your success and happiness, both in business and life. Folkman’s life mission has been to provide accurate assessments for leaders to help them understand their effectiveness, impact on outcomes, and specific insights on what they can do to improve. To discover the differences between leaders with high levels of trust and those who are not trusted at all, Folkman collected data from millions of raters and hundreds of thousands of leaders from across the globe. The results revealed the measurable disparities of trust between poor and good leaders, three behaviors that are most important to gain trust, and how leaders can vastly improve the trust others have in them. Now you can discover the tools for increasing trust based on quantifiable results and have greater impact and effectiveness as a leader.
