How to give feedback without a request
Give a colleague feedback on your own initiative from the Give feedback tab. Once you continue to the questionnaire, the feedback is saved as pending until you send it.
Before you start
Your company uses the Feedback module and lets you give feedback without a request.
Your company has at least one feedback type that you are allowed to give.
Steps
In the side menu, open Development & Growth > Feedback > Give Feedback. If you are already in Feedback, open the Give feedback tab.
Click Give feedback, next to Choose an user and give him your feedback. The form Give feedback to opens.
In Feedback type, choose the type of feedback. If the type is about OKRs, choose the OKR in Select your OKR.
In Feedback context, describe the situation you want to give feedback on.
In Select user, which appears once you have chosen the type, choose the colleague. If there are several types, this field appears after you choose the type.
Continue with the button at the bottom of the form. From this moment the feedback is saved as pending in your My pending feedback list, even if you do not finish it.
The questionnaire Send user's feedback opens. Answer the questions. Text answers can have up to 2000 characters. Some ratings ask you to Please add a comment for your classification.
Click Send feedback.
If you are asked You are giving this feedback to the user (without having been asked to you). Do you want to share it with Manager?, answer yes to let your colleague's manager see it, or no to keep it between you and your colleague. Either answer sends the feedback.
You see Feedback successfully submitted. The feedback appears in the Give feedback tab, in My given feedbacks, and your colleague finds it in their My received feedback list. After you send it, you cannot change it.
If you stop before sending
Your feedback stays in My feedback > My pending feedback, as I want to give feedback to followed by your colleague's name, with the tag Fill out feedback. Click it to continue. If you no longer want to give it, open its three-dot menu and cancel it. Cancelling cannot be undone.
If your form looks different
If your company has a feedback type about yourself, the questionnaire is called Feedback on myself and you do not choose a colleague. It shows as Fill out self-feedback until you send it, and as Self-feedback afterwards.
If you see a Save Feedback button, you can save your answers and finish later. You see Feedback successfully saved, and the feedback shows To be completed until you send it.
If you see Upload images or Upload PDFs, you can attach files to your feedback.
If you manage a team
Your company may have feedback types only for managers. With these, Select user only shows the people you manage.
In the mobile app
Tap Menu at the bottom of the screen and then Feedback (swipe left if you do not see it). Inside it, the sections of the module are in the bar at the bottom. The pages and the steps are the same as on the web.
If you do not see this
Your company may use a different name for this area or place it elsewhere in the menu. If your menu has no side groups, look for Feedback in the list of modules at the top.
If there is no Give feedback button, your company does not use feedback without a request. You can still answer requests.
If a message says there are no feedback types you can give, contact your platform administrator.
If a colleague does not appear in Select user, the feedback type you chose may be limited to certain groups of people.
