When providing feedback in line with Extreme Ownership, which line demonstrates seeking to supply support?

• A. What support or assets could I have given you so that we could have gotten the project done on time?
• B. I don't think I did a good job of explaining the mission objective. Do you fully understand it?
• C. I think I have allowed things to get too slack around here in terms of our professionalism, and I think that's one of the reasons we lost that last client to one of our competitors.
• D. This is your project, and you are the one I trust to drive it to an on-time completion.

Answer: (A)

Focusing feedback on providing what the team needs to succeed is key. This line shows that mindset by asking what support or assets could have been given to get the project done on time. It puts the emphasis on removing obstacles and supplying resources, guidance, or clarity to enable the team to perform, which is a core move in Extreme Ownership—leaders ensure the team has what it needs and take action to provide it.

By contrast, another line centers on making sure everyone understands the mission, which addresses communication rather than resource provision. Another line expresses self-critique about professionalism without pointing to how to support the team going forward. The final line emphasizes trust and empowerment to drive the project, but it doesn’t solicit or offer the specific support needed to hit the deadline.
