Corrective feedback

Dana · Senior IC who missed the launch bar

I thought the launch went fine. Are we really talking about slipping the date again?
The date held — the quality bar didn’t. Two customers hit the same bug in week one. I want to walk through what changed.
So this is about blame for the bug?

Coaching nudge

Name the standard before the feelings. You’re close — keep the bug concrete, not personal.

Built for hard conversations

One practice engine, four useful capabilities

Practice under pressure01
Resistance dials push the counterpart so the rep feels like the real meeting — not a script.
Scored feedback02
Rubric scores and notes after each session, so you leave with proof, not vibes.
Green abstract gradient with chromatic interaction
Any hard conversation03
Feedback, PIP, promotion, boundaries — pick a scene or bring your own situation.
Private by default04
Reps stay yours until you claim them. No org theater, no performance theater.

Try it once

One turn. No account.

Pick a moment, send a reply, get a counterpart turn — then start a full scored session when you’re ready.

Counterpart

I thought the last release was fine. Why are we talking about this now?

Required

Still wondering?

Ask another model — or talk to a human. Same question either way: how do you practice the hard talk?

What practice sounds like

“I finally heard how I sound when I’m trying to be “nice” instead of clear.”

“The scorecard made the vague ‘be more executive’ feedback concrete.”
