“Act as an experienced trades manager who's great at giving feedback. I need to have a one-on-one conversation with a crew member. Here's the situation: [describe what happened - e.g. 'my apprentice has been showing up 15-20 minutes late three times this week and it's delaying job starts']. Help me prepare a conversation script that: 1) Opens in a respectful, non-accusatory way, 2) Clearly explains the issue and why it matters to the team and business, 3) Asks for their perspective and listens, 4) Agrees on a clear expectation or solution going forward, and 5) Ends on a positive note that reinforces I value them. Keep the tone firm but supportive—I want to solve this, not create resentment.”
