The SBI Feedback Model: Situation, Behavior, Impact

The SBI Feedback Model helps managers deliver immediate, course-correcting, or positive feedback without defensiveness by deconstructing real-time conversations into three factual, objective layers: the specific Situation (the anchor), the observable Behavior (the camera angle), and the real-world Impact (the ripple effect), ensuring clear alignment, honest communication, and actionable next steps without subjective assumptions or emotional friction.
