Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- I blurt out corrections in the heat of the moment, often right in front of other people, and instead of taking it in they just get humiliated and dig in
- I tend to bite my tongue in the moment and save things up for the formal review, and then I dump weeks of accumulated issues on someone all at once
- My work only pays off way down the line
- I deliver my feedback as a finished verdict and then the other person just sits there closed off
- By the time I find out how something I did actually landed, it’s days or weeks later and I can’t even remember which choice caused it
