Original Advice

DONT: Don’t label people; describe observable behaviors.

Name Actions, Not People

Your tidy verdicts feel efficient, but they flatten people. Bossy, lazy, messy lets you feel done while nothing changes. Labels are shortcuts for control, not clarity. They keep you safe, superior, distant. You love accuracy; labels are gossip dressed as data. Describe what happened: who interrupted, who spoke over, who missed a deadline. Build receipts, not categories.

Behavior is measurable. Identities are prisons. When you track actions—frequency, timing, impact—you create levers. People can change what they do; they resent what you call them. Specifics open doors: You reassigned tasks without asking at 10 a.m. invites correction. Labels spark resistance and secret chaos. Precision is your superstition; use it cleanly. Replace verdicts with timelines, counts, quotes, outcomes. Watch power rebalance.
