How to Give and Receive Effective Meeting Feedback

Learn strategies for asking and providing constructive feedback to enhance the effectiveness of your virtual meetings.

min read

Meeting feedback is our quality check. It assesses our time's value, highlights improvements, and guides future sessions. It's not just polite—it's essential. Feedback sharpens discussions, ensures all voices count, and keeps our virtual meetings productive. In short, it's how we evolve from good meetings to great ones.

Asking for Feedback:

  • Be specific: "Thoughts on our brainstorming session?"
  • Use scales: "Rate meeting productivity from 1-5."
  • ‍Ask open-ended: "How can we improve next time?"‍
  • Offer anonymity: "Anonymous submissions welcome."‍
  • Time it right: Ask now, while it's fresh.
  • ‍Follow up: "We'll review before next meeting."

Giving Feedback:

  • Be constructive: "Clear agenda, but time management needs work."‍
  • Use the sandwich method: Positive, suggestion, positive.‍
  • Be specific: "The project update took twice as long as planned."‍
  • Offer solutions: "Consider using a timer per item."‍
  • Focus on the meeting, not people: "Discussion felt rushed."‍
  • Balance feedback: Mention successes and improvements.‍
  • Be concise: Short, clear points stick better.‍
  • Provide examples: "Marketing's visuals were particularly effective."

Feedback isn't an afterthought—it's the blueprint for our next success. It doesn't just end this meeting; it improves the next one. Each comment shapes our ideal gathering. So, before we sign off, let's share our thoughts. In virtual meetings, great feedback isn't a bonus—it's the key ingredient for continuous improvement.

How Feta helps with meeting agendas?

We understand that meetings aren’t just a time block. There are a plethora of pre-, in, and post-meeting tasks involved in driving an effective meeting.

That’s why we are building Feta - it helps product and engineering teams capture meeting context, automate tasks, and focus on high-impact work.

We are still in the early stages and rolling out access every day. If that sounds interesting, join the waitlist or fill out this form, and we’ll be in touch super soon.
