Key Principles

• Be specific -- Reference sections/tables in the analysis by name
• Questions over assumptions -- If something is unclear, ask rather than assume
• Business value focus -- Prioritize feedback that affects business outcomes
• Constructive tone -- Acknowledge what is done well, then identify gaps
• Actionable feedback -- Every concern should have a suggested resolution
