What you'll learn
Spot personality-driven feedback
Identify common red flags and language that signals when feedback is about traits instead of behaviors.
Shift from traits to behaviors
Use the SBI (Situation–Behavior–Impact) framework to translate vague or biased feedback into clear, actionable input.
Deliver feedback that drives action
Practice phrasing that's specific, performance-based, and forward-looking—so it builds growth instead of resentment
Why this topic matters
Too often, feedback sounds like a judgment of who someone is—“You’re not a team player,” “You’re too quiet,” “You’re too aggressive.” Personality-driven feedback erodes trust, reinforces bias, and leaves no path to improve.
In this session, you’ll learn to spot it, understand why it fails, and practice what to say instead—so your feedback drives clarity, trust, inclusion and action.
