Pay Transparency and Fair Pay: Disclosure, Audits, and Enforcement
Pay transparency is spreading, but posting a range in a job ad is only one lever.

Hard feedback can either sharpen someone's performance or quietly end their trust in you.

Weigh what preserves the relationship while still changing behavior, and pick the method that fits your team.
