When to Give Verbal Feedback — and When to Do It in Writing
"You give clear feedback to your direct report. They acknowledge the feedback. And then…nothing changes. How many times have you been in this frustrating situation?

We show the benefits of both approaches and analyse the potential advantages of providing more costly, manual feedback."
