INTRODUCTION
Induction and coaching in the workplace is important in retaining and developing employees which in turn benefits the employer by having high achieving staff. Utilising an induction plan introduces new employees into the business and assists in helping them to fit into the organisation and structure. Ongoing coaching will help employees develop their skills to be a better performer at work.
THE BENEFITS OF INDUCTION
The induction process benefits both the employee and the employer.
Employee Benefits
The benefits to the employee are that they will understand the business, where they fit into it and the company values. Although they may have some understanding of the business this is the time to go through it in more detail.
It is also an opportunity to make them feel welcome and part of the team and to help them understand their role and responsibilities as well the roles of staff within their team and organisation.
Employer Benefits
The new employee will understand their role in the organisation which will help them feel part of the company more quickly. This can benefit the company from a customer perspective as their perception will be better when dealing with staff who fully understands their role, responsibilities and the organisation.
A thorough induction process can also assist the company in retaining good employees which can ultimately be a cost saving. (Smith, 2014) suggests the cost of replacing a member of staff is currently more than £30,000.

...or giving feedback is the BOOST model as it helps make your feedback structured.
• Balanced: Focus on both the strengths and what needs improvement
• Observed: Only provide feedback on what you have observed
• Objective: Focusing on the facts and not the personality
• Specific: Support your comments with examples of observed behaviour
• Timely: Give feedback as soon as possible
When giving feedback it is important to maintain and enhance self esteem and create the right environment so they feel able to air their views.
By using the EEC model you can get your feedback over in a concise manner.
• Example: What was done? This should be specific
• Effect: How this made people feel at the time
• Change or continue: What needs to change, how and why it needs to change
Constructive feedback will allow the person to learn and develop and be a better asset to the company.

Feedback is a positive way to decide if your communication is effective and potentially useful. To get feedback, you could ask a colleague to watch over your discussions and ask them what you need to improve on and what your qualities are. You can also record your discussions and get multiple feedback by sharing your video among staff.
Induction programmes are not usually about a specific job the employee will be doing, but the way in which the business works. Then they have off and on the job training, which takes place in different methods. Induction This is the training provided for new employees and in this program they will learn the following: * Where everything around the workplace is such as the essentials which are fire exits, toilets, staff canteen, basically they will get a guided tour of their place of work. * They will go through the employee’s hour of work, who their manager is, name tags, uniform and training which will be provided for them in the future.

In Feedback as a gift, Friedrich makes some good points about how to give and receive feedback.
The 360-degree feedback system can be very delicate in nature. A person not well ready for it could be thrown out of balance. It can also generate some new problem in an organisation. It not designed and conducted well, it posses the potential danger of a candidate developing wrong perceptions or notions about one or more of his auditor and creating new perspective towards them. It is therefore, unavoidable and significant to handle the process well and make it foolproof. The first important step is to examine whether the organisation is ready for it or not. The second important step is to examine if the candidate is ready for it. For the purpose of systematic analysis and examination of the problem at hand, the studies by the several researchers have been reviewed. Baron, (2009) examines that managers who received upward feedback about their supervisory behaviour significantly improved their behaviour and improves the subordinate ratings of managerial performance. Similarly, Baron, (2009) found that employees were favourably disposed toward associate rating. The feedback is positively related with fulfilment with prior peer ratings and negatively associated with perceived friendship bias and years of company experience. Subordinates’ ratings of leadership were significantly higher following feedback from subordinates under which a highly structured session is there where leaders discussed the feedback results with subordinates (Baron, 2009).
In this chapter, I learned new ways to give and to accept feedback. Personally, I like getting feedback. I like it because it allows me to improve on my work. For example, whenever I write essays I like to have another person look at it so they can catch any small, or even big, mistakes that I may have done. This chapter also taught me that too much negative feedback can really take a toll on a person negatively. When you give somebody too much negative feedback, that person can start to think that they’re doing everything completely wrong and can really be detrimental to their self-esteem. To give good feedback, you should give the person more positive feedback than negative. You should use constructive rather than destructive feedback. Constructive feedback is more information specific and issue specific based on observations without using judgement. Destructive feedback is full of judgement and isn’t helping the person learn. When you get the feedback, it is best to reframe it and then reconstruct it to your advantage. Getting feedback is always a good tool to get but not when it only contains
...les of her failure was given to her. Also she feels as through she was caught of guard when her manager gave her the feedback. She thinks that this style of feedback is not helping her to succeed or become a better employee at the company.
How you deliver feedback is as important as how you accept it, because it can be experienced in a very negative way. To be effective you must be tuned in, sensitive, and honest when giving feedback. Just as there are positive and negative approaches to accepting feedback, so too are there ineffective and effective ways to give it.
Feedback is giving a response or aftermath description of the work being done. By receiving feedback, one is given the

Part of ensuring that the employee feels welcome into the BASF’s organisation the new employee attends a welcome event which is an informal event get together, this event also assists in giving an overview of the company’s purpose of existence , its strategy and values.

Feedback should be communicated in language that is understandable for the learner, have a genuine purpose, and be significant for the individual needs of each student. Through feedback, teachers can provide the students with suggestions for development, learning strategies, and corrections for errors.
Feedback also cannot be generic saying right or wrong; it will be less useful but not make a huge differ...
