Abstract

This study revealed barriers to an effective feedback culture in a pool of applicants for a residency or locum position in surgical disciplines. A culture of reluctance to give feedback was a strong and common denominator. A process of filtering feedback could possibly be a method of survival and thriving in the contemporary workplace. Suggestions and initiatives to change the feedback culture are proposed.
