This guide is for workspace admins setting up feedback. For how to give, request, and review feedback day to day, see Giving or requesting feedback.

Peer feedback matters in self-organising teams, where there is no manager handing down reviews. Nestr's Feedback app gives your team structured, role-based feedback.

Enabling the feedback app

Feedback is enabled by a workspace admin:

  1. Go to Workspace settings → Applications.
  2. Find and enable the Feedback app.

Once enabled, everyone in the workspace can give and request feedback, either for a person or for their work in a specific role.

Enable the feedback app from your workspace settings -> applications page.

Custom feedback forms

You can create custom feedback forms to match how your organisation works:

  • Common formats include Keep/Stop/Start (KSS), strength-based feedback, and competency assessments.
  • Each form can have multiple text fields and slider or scale fields.

Known issue: avoid using colons (:) in feedback form field names, as text after the colon may be cut off.

Finding feedback

All feedback is accessible from My feedback in the sidebar:

  • My feedback to process: new feedback the receiver has not reviewed yet.
  • Feedback I've given: a history of feedback provided.
  • Feedback I've received: all feedback received across a person's roles.
All your pending, given and received feedback in one place.
All your pending, given and received feedback in one place.

Circle-level feedback is also visible in each circle's Work → Feedback tab.

Deleting feedback

If test feedback was submitted while setting up, you can delete individual feedback items from the feedback detail view.
