In living systems, feedback mechanisms are often described as self-regulating loops because they can first sense that a change has occurred, respond to the change, and then stop the response once homeostasis has been reached. Then the loop is "reset" so that it can respond to a different stimulus.

Feedback promotes personal and professional growth. Feedback is about listening actively, taking the time to analyze, and then thinking of the best possible solution to perform better. It provides positive criticism and allows to see what everyone can change to improve their focus and results.

Feedback mechanisms provide one of the most effective ways to change behaviour. As the business environment accelerates, we're hearing more and more calls for 'real time feedback'. It's never been more important for managers to understand what feedback mechanisms are, and how they can be used for great results.

Feedback is an essential component of any communication plan for stakeholders. It helps you measure the effectiveness of your messages, identify gaps and misunderstandings, and adjust your strategy accordingly.
