Timing? Delivering Difficult Information Successfully…
In all successful situations, timing can play a huge role in how the situation turns out. If you have waited “too long” to deliver the difficult information, review in your mind what the original details were and how they apply now.
Does the information need to be delivered? Has the situation improved? Is the communication really going to be difficult? Do you know what it is that you need as an outcome from the communication? Does the person(s) involved understand the details that need to be corrected?
Once you are clear on the level of need, just have the conversation/communication. The longer you wait, the more difficult it becomes to justify the “seriousness” of the original issue. It is either worth the time to discuss or not. Be fair and have the discussion and support you and them in creating better performance and high value success.
