FEEDBACK
 
IS TO

PROGRESS
WHICH REQUIRES THAT IT IS READ AND UNDERSTOOD
WHICH MEANS THAT IT MUST CUT TO THE CORE OF MATTERS WHILE BEING

Team members that do not feel valued look for other work opportunities.  Positive feedback shows you value their contributions.  Constructive feedback shows you care and that you are invested in growing their skills and career. 
 Team leaders that show empathy attract team loyalty.
 Regular Feedback that is clearly understood grows team participation, effectiveness and service delivery.
 Team members that receive constructive feedback are more likely to declare and utilise their strengths and abilities. 
 According to PwC, nearly 60% of employees surveyed stated that they would like feedback on a daily or weekly basis. 
Feedback reports are often mistaken for criticism largely because they are voluminous and thus are not read but scanned. In these circumstances, constructive criticism tends to be viewed as negative criticism.

Scorecards and variations thereof have been used effectively since the analogy was drawn from a golf scorecard. In defining a scorecard for your use the objectives, measurables and targets should be carefully chosen and these should be benchmarked against current performance. You should ensure that distinction is drawn between measured inputs and outputs on the one hand and the subjective assessment/evaluation of the resultant impact and outcome of the services delivered.
