Tom Krieglstein shows how to give feedback without attacking someone's character. Instead of saying "you're at fault," use neutral observations like "I've noticed you've been voicing a lot of concerns." This keeps the conversation collaborative and focused on solving the problem.
Here are ways you can keep the balance and ensure the message lands safely with the person you're trying to give the feedback to. Number one, frame the feedback constructively. Instead of pointing fingers, frame your feedback in a way that opens the door to improvement. Feedback is not just an opportunity to play the blame game. You're at fault. You're at fault. You're at fault. Oh, this is fun. You're such a child. You're at fault. You're at fault. You're at fault. None of it's my fault. Embarrassing. It's about addressing behaviors, not attacking characters. Instead of you're always so negative, try I've noticed you've been voicing a lot of concerns about our projects lately. Can we talk about what's behind that? This approach helps keep the conversation productive and focused on the solutions, not on the accusations.
