Interpersonal Friction:

Credit in Public, Correct in Private

WHEN TO USE

Use when you have feedback to give, positive or corrective.

WHAT TO DO

Praise specifically and visibly; correction belongs in private. Before correcting, check three conditions: Is this person in a state to receive this? Have I chosen a private setting? Am I entering as a partner in their growth, or as the keeper of a grievance? Make your feedback specific, behavioral, and forward-facing.
