Tips & notes

Fill-in framework: performance feedback

Having trouble turning feedback into a clear conversation? This kit includes a “Feedback Fill-In” sheet with three prompts:

  • What occurred – stick to what you saw/heard
  • Effect on work – the concrete result
  • Way forward – one specific next step

Write one sentence per box. The structure keeps the talk grounded and makes it easy for the other person to hear and act on.

No outline hunting. Just fill and talk.
