It‘s the skip level of my former manager who’s reaching out now, but otherwise correct. Yeah my concern is about confidentiality and possible retaliation. Like it would be helpful to share the feedback but not at my own expense. So I guess I’m trying to weigh the risks here.
At least in my experience, if a skip level is contacting you about feedback they normally know something isn't right and want to gather examples. Just give objective feedback with specific examples of when you have seen it.
I kind of thought the same so I tried to be as objective as possible and submitted the feedback
Create a paper trail.
For a non English speaking person, what is a « skip level » person ?
I'm guessing it's the manager of the former manager.
Exactly
I could go into chat GPT, say that you were asked to give 360 feedback for someone and you’re worried about retaliation. Then give it the top 2 or 3 things you’d like to highlight.
For example, if you want to talk about micromanaging, you could say:
"I believe there's an opportunity to foster a more autonomous work environment. Empowering team members with greater decision-making responsibilities could lead to increased productivity."
That pretty constructive and bland.
Thanks for the idea, I’ve actually done that to make sure everything is as PC as possible and formulated in a positive way and decide to submit the feedback.
"I have no comments I feel would be helpful at this point."
In my experience, there's never been anything positive to come from upward feedback.
