What's in this Project Oxygen template

The ten Oxygen behaviours, each with a line on what it looks like in practice.

A one-page summary: when to use them, the steps for an upward feedback round - the team rates the manager anonymously, the manager rates themselves, then you compare and pick one or two behaviours to work on - and the traps to watch for, like treating the list as a scorecard.

Tips for using it

Don't try to work on all ten at once. Use the ratings to pick one or two behaviours where improvement would make the biggest difference to your team right now, and focus there first.
