"You reduced deploy time 40% by implementing the new CI pipeline" is.2. **Balance positive and constructive** — Both are essential. Neither should be a surprise.3. **Focus on behaviors, not personality** — "Your documentation has been incomplete" vs. "You're careless."4. **Make development actionable** — "Improve communication" is vague. "Present at the next team all-hands" is actionable.Related skills
