Feedback Forms
The ASI encourages feedback as a tool for personal and professional growth for all spiritual leaders. Offering students a way to provide feedback is an ASI membership requirement.
ASI offers three feedback forms below that members can download for use on their websites, after events, or in other contexts.
When we invite student feedback, we address the traditional power imbalance between teacher and student.
Reading feedback can be uncomfortable. We may encounter hurtful comments, misinterpretations, or personal attacks. We're called to approach each opinion maturely, considering what it offers in professional or personal growth.
All feedback, positive or negative, can be constructive. Our students often see our blind spots—what we cannot yet see in ourselves. Asking for feedback requires us to listen, learn, and grow while dropping our defenses and embracing vulnerability.

ASI's Peer Support Program is available if you don't already have a peer to help you process feedback constructively. ASI recommends working with a colleague as you navigate this process. This peer-to-peer approach increases learning and growth while providing objective support.
We offer three distinct sample feedback forms for you to choose from:
