Managerial feedback and neuroscience

Feim Blakçori

Chapter 44 in Elgar Concise Encyclopedia of Neuroscience and Management, 2026, pp 154-158 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This entry explores the intersection of managerial feedback and neuroscience, emphasizing feedback's dual role as a managerial and neurocognitive process. It argues that effective feedback enhances employee performance as well as stimulating neuroplasticity -reshaping neural pathways to foster learning, adaptation, and behavioral change. Drawing on insights from neuroscience, the study highlights feedback's impact on cognition, emotion, and motivation, while addressing challenges such as communication barriers, cognitive biases, and psychological defensiveness. Ultimately, managerial feedback is reframed as a neurologically grounded, dynamic practice essential for cultivating growth, learning, and sustained organizational performance.
