Give feedback in five minutes without a big meeting

The problem

Feedback waits for a formal review, so small misses turn into habits.

Steps

1. Pull them aside privately the same day
2. Ask if they are open to a quick bit of coaching
3. Name the specific behavior you saw
4. Give one win and one polish with a single ask
5. Have them say the ask back
6. Write a one-line note and follow up next shift
