🖤 This can be such a tricky subject for people to tackle and know how to approach. And knowing how to give feedback, particularly taking into account different personality types is really important at work. So taking time to think about this, focus on it, and document it for employees shows you care. And applicants looking at Checkly’s handbook will see just how much attention they pay to feedback, which is vital to any healthy culture. This will win them some serious fans. Awesome work from Checkly. 👏
