1. Cognitive load matters. Communicate what truly matters. Information overload is a very real thing. Doug Lemov talks about rehearsing what you’re going to say in a given situation. Figure out what information is actually relevant and communicate only that.
2. Evaluate independent of outcome. I think the important piece is getting players to recognize the outcome doesn’t change that it was the right decision. Sometimes you do the right thing and it still goes against you.
