Select the feedback sequence that produces action, not defensiveness.
Your teammate misses a deadline again. What is the strongest first response? 'This is unacceptable, and you need to improve.' 'In the last two sprints, the same delay pattern appeared. Can we review one blocker and a plan?' 'Let's wait for annual review so we can discuss it calmly.' 'You are likely overloaded, I won't discuss this now.' The correct option uses one concrete pattern and invites joint problem-solving. The other options are vague, avoidant, or overly delayed and therefore weaker at driving behavior change.
