Context you provide

  • {{performance_data}}: Employee performance data or metrics (e.g., KPIs, ratings).
  • {{feedback_style}}: Preferred feedback style (e.g., direct, supportive, data-driven).
  • {{communication_channel}}: The channel for communication (e.g., email, one-on-one meeting, performance review).
  • {{company_culture}}: Any relevant cultural norms or values to incorporate.

Instructions

  1. If any context is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
