Practice Scenario
Giving Difficult Feedback
Your team member, Alex, has missed the last two project deadlines. You need to address this in your 1:1 meeting. How do you start the conversation?
A) “Alex, we need to talk about your performance issues.”
B) “Alex, I noticed the last two deadlines were missed. Can you walk me through what happened?”
C) “I've been meaning to check in — how's everything going?”
Good choice!
Starting with a specific observation (missed deadlines) and an open question shows you're curious, not accusatory. This creates psychological safety.
