Why is The Feedback Sandwich Is Not So Tasty – Using the ACT Matrix to Make Feedback More Delicious important?
She almost quit – because of me.
And I felt like a failure.
Years ago, I provided supervision for a BCBA candidate as she worked as an RBT with one of my clients. We worked together with this client for 6 months when there were some major changes in the company that caused the RBT to lose most of her clients.
She had the opportunity to pick up more hours by working with more of my clients, only she told me that she didn’t want to because she didn’t want to work with me more than she already was. She said that I made her uncomfortable.
She would rather be out of work than work with me!
I was blind-sided and had no idea she felt that way. It was a huge blow to my ego at first, but after taking a step back, I recognized it for the learning opportunity that it was. We had a meeting where she explained the 2 encounters we had where I provided corrective feedback. These situations seemed minor to me, especially since we had many more positive interactions from my perspective, but they obviously were important to her. I apologized to her, but she had no interest in restoring our relationship.
It was through this and other humbling experiences that I learned the importance of building that trusting relationship before jumping in to provide feedback.
