Feedback should not be your monologue. Show your employees that you are really interested in them by asking for their insights. The basic question is: How can I help you?
4. Determine your goals
Consider mutual expectations together with the employee and agree on specific goals. Let the employee describe the expected results himself.
5. Do not want to change anyone
Even as a manager you cannot change your subordinates. You can, however, come up with feedback to explain the consequences of not making a change.
6. Do not worry
Take feedback as your work. You are the one responsible for your team's performance, not just a "friend" of your people. Be honest and open and let your people decide on how to respond to your feedback.
