What's The Goal? Give Feedback That Gets You Closer! – Julia Seidman – Lunch & Learn
As a teacher, I gave a lot of feedback. I didn't always remember to follow best practices, but I know what they are! Feedback is most effective when it's matched to a desired outcome, so we'll talk about how to identify your goal and give feedback that helps you get there, and what to do when you fall short.
Julia Seidman is a technical marketing consultant and developer in the Seattle area. She has 2 terrific kids and a wonderful partner, and her family cos-plays as a “normal” family. Julia is a believer in the careen, rather than the career. After studying anthropology and writing a senior thesis on the ethics of museum collections of human skeletal remains, she took the job she could get, which was fundraising for a hospital. From there, she became a financial analyst and employee educator for 401(k) and pension plans. After that, she got a Master’s in Teaching, and taught high school English, ESL and Debate for most of a decade. Now, she works as a freelance technical writer and software developer, specializing in technical content marketing. Along the way, she has learned a lot about a lot of things, including the Python ecosystem.

Title of the Lunch & Learn: What's The Goal? Give Feedback That Gets You Closer!
Description: As a teacher, I gave a lot of feedback. I didn't always remember to follow best practices, but I know what they are! Feedback is most effective when it's matched to a desired outcome, so we'll talk about how to identify your goal and give feedback that helps you get there, and what to do when you fall short.
Format: I'll have a few slides. I'm hoping to get some examples from people in advance, but I'll definitely be calling on people to share experiences.
Timing: I'd love to do it at 1PM Eastern if possible. Any day except Wednesdays, and I'll be out of town the last week of June/July 1.
