Finding the right moment to provide feedback that adds value to someone who is very sensitive will make a significant difference. In this case, it is not about using a dominant position, power, or influence; it is about achieving a positive result that creates value for all parties, the team, the organization, and the objectives. I recommend looking for a good time during the day's schedule, doing it in a safe and private environment where trust-building is evident, using positive and assertive language, and when we reach the areas for improvement, communicating it respectfully, clearly, and precisely, while seeking commitments that generate constructive action plans.
