Description

Feedback can feel daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. 

In this episode, I share how leaders can create feedback conversations that feel supportive, specific, and truly helpful. Instead of focusing on what you can’t control, I walk through what you can - from preparation and intention to the environment you set.

I also introduce the SBI model as a simple framework to give feedback that’s clear, thoughtful, and actionable. 

By treating feedback as a conversation rather than a monologue, you’ll build trust, encourage growth, and set the tone for a stronger team culture.

Here are the highlights:

Why leaders often over-focus on what they can’t control (01:22 )

The mindset shift that changes everything about feedback (03:46 )

How the SBI model makes feedback clear and actionable (07:55 )

Turning feedback into a conversation, not a lecture (10:40 )

Creating safety and trust to support team growth (13:10 )
