💬 Feedback & ABC

OERR model + 4 cases

OERR Feedback Model

  • O — OBSERVATION · Describe what you saw or heard. No judgment, no labels.
  • E — EFFECT · Name the impact on you, the team, the line or the customer.
  • R — RECOGNITION · Invite their reflection: "Did you notice this yourself?"
  • R — REQUEST · Co-create the next step: "What can we agree for tomorrow?"
  • Behaviour > personality. Recent > old. Specific > general.

Effective Feedback — The 4-Step Model

The Johari Window — Feedback Makes You Grow

ABC Leadership Model

  • A — ACTION (Instruction) · Be crystal-clear on TASK · STANDARD · TIMING.
  • B — BEHAVIOR (Observation) · Observe during the shift. Compare what you SEE with the standard you SET.
  • C — CONSEQUENCE (Follow-up) · Compliment behaviour that meets the standard. Correct (kindly, immediately) when it deviates.
  • Without B and C, A is just talk. NO FOLLOW-UP = NO STANDARD.

ABC at a Glance

Practice Cases — Apply OERR

01

Case 1 · The Safety Skip

An experienced operator removes a guard panel "to be faster" during peak. Production is up, but a near-miss happened yesterday. Your supervisor expects you to address it.
  • O — What exactly did you observe?
  • E — What is the impact on safety, the team and yourself?
  • R — How will you invite their reflection?
  • R — What agreement will you ask for?
02

Case 2 · The Handover Mess

The previous shift consistently leaves the Q messy. Your team complains daily but no one talks to the other shift's Team Lead directly.
  • O — Describe what you found at handover (concrete).
  • E — What does this cost in time / quality / mood?
  • R — How do you open the conversation with the other Team Lead?
  • R — What concrete agreement do you propose?
03

Case 3 · Teamwork Breakdown

Two operators barely speak to each other after a disagreement. The atmosphere on the line is tense and others are noticing it.
  • O — What behaviour have you observed (separately and together)?
  • E — What is the impact on the rest of the team?
  • R — How will you check each person's perception?
  • R — What is the smallest possible next step they can agree to?

Case 4 · 360° Feedback

Time to gather 360° feedback. Ask four people for feedback on your role as Team Lead (or Operator): one person from HR, one supervisor or manager, one Team Lead and one colleague from the floor. Download the 360° feedback form below, print it or forward it.
  • Who exactly will you ask? (1 HR, 1 supervisor or manager, 1 Team Lead, 1 colleague from the floor)
  • What is your one concrete question ("What do I do that helps the team / what can I do better?")?
  • When this week will you actually have the conversation?
  • How will you receive the feedback without defending yourself?
