How do you give difficult feedback without damaging a working relationship?
Dr. Donita Brown shares a personal experience with a trusted advisor who needed to tell her something she didn't want to hear. Instead of rushing into the conversation, he did something simple: he asked whether she had the time and headspace to receive his feedback.
That small gesture changed how the conversation unfolded.
In this episode of The Management Minute, Donita explores why timing, trust, and asking permission matter when delivering honest feedback. She also reflects on what she's learned from more than 20 years of giving feedback, including moments when she didn't get it right.
Whether you're a manager, team leader, or colleague, this episode is a reminder that how you start a difficult conversation can make all the difference in how your message is received.
Before your next feedback conversation, ask yourself: Is this person ready to hear what I have to say?
