Employees don’t just want feedback—they need it.
Timely, candid feedback from supervisors is one of the most effective ways to motivate teams, reinforce positive behavior, and drive engagement. Research consistently shows that when employees receive frequent ,constructive feedback, they experience higher job satisfaction, greater commitment, and improved performance (Aguinis et al., 2012).
· Boosts Motivation & Retention – Employees who receive immediate recognition for their contributions are more engaged and less likely to leave (Gallup, 2023; Sairam, 2016).
· Strengthens Performance & Accountability –Clear, real-time feedback helps employees adjust behaviors proactively, leading to continuous improvement and stronger outcomes (London & Smither, 2002).
· Builds Trust & Fairness – Regular, specific feedback fosters a workplace culture where employees feel valued, respected, and fairly evaluated, increasing commitment and reducing burnout (Anseel etal., 2015; el Haddad et al., 2019).
