The Feedback Health Check by David Pereira is a practical, team-oriented template designed to help individuals and organizations strengthen their feedback culture. Instead of treating feedback as criticism, this tool reframes it as a powerful growth mechanism that helps teams reflect, communicate openly, and build stronger collaboration habits.
Use this template to run regular feedback retrospectives, uncover blind spots, and identify concrete actions that improve how your team gives and receives feedback. Whether used in leadership teams, cross-functional groups, or personal development sessions, the Feedback Health Check turns reflection into action and builds a culture rooted in trust, clarity, and continuous improvement.
