## Author notes / illustrative keys where applicable

1. Check whether priorities have an understandable order; unclear priorities can coexist with strong commitment to the team.
2. Identify a concrete resource gap and the task it affects rather than using resources as a proxy for motivation.
3. Distinguish knowing whom to ask from feeling able to ask; each may need a different response.
4. Find what would make ideas receive useful consideration, rather than assuming that a new suggestion box is sufficient.
5. Connect growth opportunities to current work so development needs are not reduced to promotion expectations.
6. Invite one actionable change while protecting small-group identities; an isolated comment does not establish a workforce-wide trend.

Interpretation caution: Protect small-group identities and distinguish working conditions from judgments about individual motivation.


## Illustrative finding and follow-up

Observation: Illustrative feedback praises peer support while describing unclear priorities and competing deadlines.

Action to test: Clarify the current priority order with the team and explain which deadline can move.

Follow-up: After testing the action, revisit this original observation: Illustrative feedback praises peer support while describing unclear priorities and competing deadlines. Repeat the relevant experience prompts with people who encountered the change. Compare specific explanations and sample differences; do not claim causation from the before-and-after responses.
