FEEDBACK: THE SECRET INGREDIENT FOR GROWTH AT INFINISWISS
In today’s business landscape, companies can often be divided into two types:
1. Those that treat feedback sessions as a mere checkbox, driven by bureaucracy or compliance requirements.
2. Those that value feedback as a tool for continuous improvement — leveraging it to grow stronger with every session.
At InfiniSwiss, feedback is more than a task—it’s a cornerstone of our culture. We prioritize creating a supportive environment where colleagues feel fulfilled both in their roles and in their work-life balance.
How We Approach Feedback
To ensure this, we hold face-to-face or online feedback sessions twice a year, along with an annual anonymous survey. These sessions facilitate open communication and reflection, with feedback flowing both ways: from management to employees and from employees to management.
Here’s why we believe feedback is essential for the healthy growth of any organization—large or small.
The Power of Giving Feedback
We encourage ongoing feedback—scheduled or spontaneous—because we know its transformative potential. When given thoughtfully, feedback can:
1. Drive Growth and Improvement
Feedback helps individuals and teams identify areas where they can improve and inspires them to find solutions to grow.
2. Build Trust and Stronger Relationships
Open feedback fosters trust, especially when participants see real changes as a result of prior sessions.
3. Encourage Accountability
Highlighting areas for improvement alongside actionable steps ensures individuals take ownership of their performance.
4. Enhance Communication
Feedback bridges communication gaps, giving everyone involved a chance to express themselves openly and respectfully.
5. Motivate and Inspire
Positive feedback can be a powerful motivator, boosting confidence and encouraging people to excel both professionally and personally.
The Value of Receiving Feedback
While giving feedback is essential, receiving it is equally crucial. Listening to feedback helps us:
1. Develop Self-Awareness
Honest feedback offers new perspectives on how actions and decisions are perceived, enabling more accurate self-assessment.
2. Facilitate Learning
Identifying areas for growth provides clarity and helps map out a clear improvement strategy.
3. Boost Performance
Constructive feedback accompanied by actionable suggestions is a direct path to enhanced performance.
4. Foster a Growth Mindset
Embracing feedback gracefully signals a willingness to learn, adapt, and improve—a mindset that sets individuals apart.
5. Strengthen Relationships
Feedback nurtures two-way communication, even in challenging conversations, ultimately strengthening bonds within the team.
