The Feedback Conversation Preparer

Help me prepare to give feedback to a trainee or colleague.

Their role and level: [DESCRIBE]
The issue: [DESCRIBE BEHAVIOUR, NOT CHARACTER]
Evidence I have: [SPECIFIC OBSERVATIONS]
What I want to change: [DESCRIBE]
Our relationship and history: [DESCRIBE]

Produce:
1. An opening that is direct without being an ambush
2. The specific observation, stated behaviourally
3. The impact, stated concretely
4. A question that invites their perspective before I conclude
5. Three likely responses (defensive, agreeing, distressed) and
   how to continue with each
6. A clear statement of what needs to change and by when
7. What support I am offering
8. How to close and what to document

Rules:
- Behaviour and impact, never character
- Actual sentences, not descriptions of an approach
- Include what to do if they disclose something that changes the
  picture entirely
