German feedback identifies specific issues rather than offering vague assessments. “This section is unclear” rather than “this needs work.” “The data doesn’t support your conclusion” rather than “something seems off.” Specific feedback locates exactly what needs attention, enabling you to address it. Vague feedback leaves you uncertain about what to fix.
When giving feedback to Germans, do the analytical work to identify specifically what is wrong. General impressions or feelings about the work are not sufficient. When receiving feedback, expect to hear precisely what the issues are.
This specificity is not nitpicking—it is providing the information needed to improve. Actionable feedback requires specificity.
