We have a new C-suite leader who comes from a much larger organization where new leader feedback sessions were routinely conducted with their teams and colleagues at 60- to 90-days after starting their roles. Our organization is growing, and the talent management and development functions are maturing. We would like to conduct leader feedback sessions for new leaders in our organization. I would appreciate your suggestions on structuring the events and insights on how to create the biggest impact. - How many people are included and at what level relative to the leader? - What questions do you ask? - How do you deliver the feedback to the leader? - What follow up do you provide to the leader, e.g., for closing perceived gaps? - What follow do you provide to the group who offers feedback? - What challenges have you faced and how did you overcome them? - Could you give an example of how the feedback helped a leader be successful?
