How New Managers Can Give Feedback Without Crushing Morale

from New Manager Conversations with Fexingo: First 90 Days, Managing Former Peers, and Leadership Basics · host Fexingo

New managers often struggle with giving constructive feedback without demotivating their team. In this episode, Lucas and Luna break down the Situation-Behavior-Impact (SBI) framework using a real example from a marketing team at a midsize SaaS company. They discuss why vague praise and criticism both fail, how to separate the person from the problem, and the one thing you should never say in a feedback conversation. Plus, they share a quick tip on building a feedback culture where everyone, including the manager, gets better. If you've ever felt awkward telling a direct report their work missed the mark, this episode is for you. #NewManagers #Feedback #Leadership #SBI #ConstructiveFeedback #Management #TeamCulture #Careers #ProfessionalDevelopment #Communication #ManagerSkills #PerformanceFeedback #Coaching #EmployeeEngagement #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #NewManagerConversations #WorkplaceCommunication Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
