Giving Real Feedback to a Remote Team
Slack is a terrible feedback medium. Written, asynchronous, contextual is the answer.
Good feedback is specific, behavioral, and lives where the work lives.
Stop giving feedback in 1:1s. Start leaving it where the work happens. A comment on a PR, a note on a project page, a written reaction on a Space post. The feedback survives, gets re-read, and doesn't depend on memory.
Verbal feedback evaporates. Written feedback compounds.
