Feedback can come in intervals or as one big hose.

The benefit of intervals is that you are able to give out the feedback in drips, watch for improvement, tweak, and give out some more.

When it comes out as a firehose, the “giving” of the feedback benefits you because you get it out all at once and can move on.

Feedback in intervals takes longer, goes slower, and requires you to hold back when talking to others.  It puts more on you as the leader than the individual.

Anyone can do a firehose and get everything out all at once, but not many are committed to staying there for the short term, showing up each and every day, helping you get better and improve all along the way.

Those are the leaders we need more of.
