Precorrections: The Reminder That Isn't a Warning

Precorrections: The Reminder That Isn't a Warning

Precorrections: The Reminder That Isn't a Warning
00:00

This week's Staffroom is about precorrections — the quick, planned reminder you give right before a moment you already know tends to go wrong, instead of managing it after the fact. We talk about why the positive version is harder to say than the warning version, and why that's exactly the point.

If you had to turn your usual warning into a positive precorrection, what would you actually say, in the couple of seconds before it happens?

This episode is narrated using an AI clone of Jamie's voice. Every word is written by Jamie. Read the full edition at
