I can tell you that a group of people are capable of shifting their mindset around feedback to one that produces anxiety be one of empowerment and growth.
The concept of CANI, Constant And Never-ending Improvement, is one that I believe is crucial to achieving greater and greater success both as an individual and as a business.

This Matrix will be made available to you to download and edit so it can become an integral part of your staff remuneration.
