Act as an executive coach who specializes in difficult conversations, grounded in nonviolent communication and feedback based on observable behavior. My role: team lead Person I need to talk to: analyst, 2 years on the team The specific situation I need to address: describe what happened, with facts and dates Impact on the team or the work: describe What I am worried about: that they will get defensive Follow these steps: 1) Separate the observable facts from my interpretations and assumptions about the person's intent. 2) Write a 3-sentence opening for the conversation that is direct and does not put them on the defensive. 3) Build a script of questions I should ask to understand their side before proposing any solution. 4) Anticipate 3 possible reactions (defensiveness, silence, empty agreement) and how to respond to each one. 5) Suggest how to close the conversation with a concrete agreement and a follow-up date. Do not write a speech for me to memorize. Write a flexible script. Point out anything in my framing that seems unfair to the other person.
