Navigating Feedback Across Generations in Leadership

In this episode, we tackle the complexities of delivering effective feedback across different generations within a team. We focus on Mei, a young project manager in Singapore, who faces the challenge of addressing performance issues with Raj, a seasoned software developer with over two decades of experience.


We discuss the unique challenges young leaders may encounter when managing older or more experienced team members. The conversation includes strategies for tailoring feedback that respects their expertise while still addressing current performance concerns. Key points cover the importance of having the right mindset before giving feedback, clarifying intent, fostering a growth mindset, and steps to follow when feedback reveals deeper performance issues. The episode highlights the leader's role in leveraging individual talents for team success, avoiding competition on expertise, and how to approach sensitive feedback conversations with respect and mutual understanding.
