Hi All,
My new manager has requested feedback on her performance via email and having listened to the manager tools podcast about this topic i am unsure of the best course of action.
Any tips or suggestions would be great,
Many thanks,
Steven
Everything I remember from
Everything I remember from the podcasts was pretty clear. Don't give your boss feedback. Not sure of the best way to get out of it. But tread very carefully.

There's a cast for that. You can't use the feedback model. Tell her all the things she's doing well. That's good information for her.

Yeah thats pretty much what i
Yeah thats pretty much what i did.
It was a direct request via email so i really didnt want to create unnecessary static by saying that i wasnt going to give her feedback.
She's been a really good boss so far so i didnt have any issues.
With a good relationship and some care ...
With a good relationship and some care, I sometimes note what effects certain behaviors have on me, akin to the peer feedback model. I specifically couch it in "here's one thing working well or not so well in supporting me getting stuff done for you" with a request on how I can further adjust to fit how things are right now.
Definitely in the "other 10% of the time" type of advice though!
