If you're a new manager and your feedback isn't landing, the problem isn't the conversation — it's the diagnosis. Most new managers give the wrong fix for the wrong problem. This episode walks you through the framework that changes that.

What you'll learn:

✅ Why feedback fails even when it's delivered correctly

✅ The root causes of underperformance — and how to identify the right one

✅ How to give feedback that leads to real, lasting behavior change

✅ What first time managers miss before every hard conversation

If your team keeps agreeing in the moment and then doing nothing differently, this is for you.
