1. “I can tell how hard you’ve worked to be more collaborative during meetings. Yesterday, although you disagreed with David’s idea, you asked some good questions first. Your critiques are more powerful than they used to be. You’ve come a long way, and the team is better for it.” 2. “Your ability to work across teams and departments is a strength not everyone has. I’m impressed with the way you’re working to dismantle silos. For example, when you drew the marketing team into our conversations, it sharpened our ideas and helped us meet goals faster. Keep up the good work.” — Bakary Diallo, manager, Itolon
