Asking for feedback can be difficult, or even intimidating. There are so many factors that could influence how you ask for feedback: company culture, personal fears, an uninvolved manager, past feedback being useless, etc…
While these might be true, they shouldn’t deter you from asking feedback. As a person who leads teams, I have to provide tons of feedback, both on a regular basis but also in every performance review. In a previous post, I describe how I provide feedback using the SBIN framework. I want to lean on this framework to also provide you with a set of template/guidance questions which will help you target your feedback, and in return, get a higher quality response.
PS 1: Whilst the title of the blog post is targeting individual contributors, Data Science managers may find the content valuable to pass on to their teams.
PS 2: The inspiration for this post came from working together with Stefano Franco. Very thoughtful team lead in helping others through developing standard team tooling.
