Provide feedback and support.
Why to give feedback
Feedback provides the concrete data needed to take corrective action(s) and to improve performance.
While most of us think of feedback as “negative”, positive feedback is necessary when you observe a behavior that you want to reinforce.
Don’t give feedback when?
You don’t care about the circumstances of the behavior.
You don’t care about the person.
You will not be around long enough to follow up on the aftermath of your feedback.
The feedback is about something the person has no power to change.
Your motive is not really improvement but rather to put someone on the spot, or to demonstrate how much smarter you are.
The time, place, or circumstances are inappropriate.
