Feedback & Listening Tools for Leading Through Change
During change, silence isn't golden - it's a warning sign.
The Feedback & Listening Tools toolkit helps you catch what your team isn’t saying, decode emotional cues, and respond before trust breaks down.
This resource gives you practical, low-lift ways to check in, gather feedback, and build psychological safety without adding more meetings or stress to your plate.
If your team’s going quiet, it’s not alignment - it’s a message you missed.



What’s Inside
Tools That Help You Hear What’s Really Going On
Inside this kit, you’ll find:
-
✅ Quick pulse check templates to surface team sentiment
-
✅ Resistance persona prompts to help decode silence, sarcasm, or disengagement
-
✅ Recovery conversation guides to rebuild after hard moments
-
✅ Trust calibration exercises to get clear on what’s helping - or hurting - connection
-
✅ Two-way messaging templates that invite feedback without sounding forced
-
✅ Psychological safety audit to spot early warning signs
You’ll walk away with clear, reusable frameworks to hear more than just words - and act on what you learn.

Builds emotional fluency - not just formality
You’ll learn to read tone, silence, reactions, and resistance like a leadership superpower.
