THE NO-BS PLAYBOOK FOR FEEDBACK THAT ACTUALLY WORKS

Listen up. If you've ever sat through one of those "feedback" sessions where your boss drones on with vague nonsense like, "You need to be more proactive", you already know—most feedback is completely useless. It's fluffy, it's unclear, and worst of all... it doesn't change a damn thing.

And if YOU'RE the one giving feedback? There's a good chance you're doing it wrong.

That's where The SBI Advantage comes in. This book hands you a simple, no-BS formula for giving feedback that sticks, drives real performance, and keeps your team from rolling their eyes the second you start talking.

HERE'S WHY YOUR FEEDBACK SUCKS

Most leaders fall into one (or all) of these traps:

Too vague. "Be more professional." What does that even mean? SBI forces you to get specific.

Too emotional. If you're rambling about "attitude," you're losing. SBI keeps it tight and factual.

Too useless. Telling someone, "You're not a team player" gives them NOTHING to fix. SBI makes it actionable.

The SBI Model (Situation-Behavior-Impact) fixes all of this.

1️⃣ Situation – Pin down the exact time and place. No "The other day" nonsense.
2️⃣ Behavior – Say exactly what happened. No assumptions. No guessing. Just observable facts.
3️⃣ Impact – Tie it to real-world consequences. Show them why it matters.

That's it. No fluff. No wasted words. Just feedback that WORKS.

WHAT YOU'LL GET IN THIS BOOK

This isn't a theory book. This is a playbook. A step-by-step breakdown of exactly how to use SBI to make your feedback powerful, respected, and impossible to ignore. You'll learn:

📌 How to structure feedback so people ACTUALLY listen
📌 The #1 mistake leaders make (and how to fix it instantly)
📌 Why SBI makes people more receptive—even to tough feedback
📌 How to praise effectively (because "Good job" is lazy and useless)
📌 How to use SBI in high-stakes situations without screwing it up

And once you master SBI? We take it up a notch with SBII—a next-level technique that unlocks hidden motivations so you can lead with precision.

THE BOTTOM LINE

If you're a leader, manager, or entrepreneur, you NEED to know how to give feedback that gets results. SBI is the difference between being a leader people respect... and being another corporate zombie spouting useless platitudes.

So here's the deal: If you're ready to ditch the fluff, stop wasting words, and start leading with impact—grab The SBI Advantage and get to work.

Because real leaders give feedback that matters.
