“Act as an experienced shop manager who's great at coaching teams without creating conflict. I need to address a mistake that happened in our shop, but I don't want to call anyone out or make them feel blamed. Turn this into a short, constructive talking point I can share at our next team meeting that focuses on the lesson, improves our process, and keeps morale positive. Here's what happened: [describe the mistake, like 'a tech forgot to reset the oil life monitor after an oil change and the customer came back confused' or 'we told a customer their car was ready but the parts hadn't arrived yet']. Give me 2-3 sentences I can say to the team that acknowledges the issue, explains why it matters, and suggests a simple fix we can all follow going forward.”
