KNOW YOU ARE
SWAMPED AND I HAVE
SOME TIME AVAILABLE

SOME INSIGHTS AND
FEEDBACK WITH YOU
ABOUT THIS. IS IT OK IF I

ME IF YOU GAVE ME

AM EAGER TO LEARN
FROM YOU AND GROW!

A LOT, ESPECIALLY AT A
MOMENT WHEN I WAS

DIFFICULTIES
YOU ARE SO RELIABLE
AND DEPENDABLE

COUNT ON YOU AND I AM
SOMEWHAT
DISAPPOINTED THAT YOU
DIDN'T SHOW UP AS

THIS THING THAT
HAPPENED IN THE
MEETING? I DON'T FEEL
COMFORTABLE WITH THE
WAY WE TALKED TO EACH
OTHER

LESSON AND I NEED TO
DO BETTER
