Let's practice turning vague feedback into clear SBI statements. A team member consistently arrives late to meetings.
Bad feedback: "You're always late and it's disrespectful."
Good SBI: "In the last three [[blank:team meetings]] this week (Situation), you arrived [[blank:10-15 minutes]] after our start time (Behavior). This meant we had to [[blank:repeat discussions]] and our meetings ran over schedule (Impact)."
