Start by providing clear and specific feedback on the areas where improvement is needed, such as clarity, timeliness, or professionalism. Offer support and resources, such as communication training or mentorship, to help the developer enhance their skills. Encourage regular check-ins and feedback sessions to monitor progress and provide ongoing guidance. Additionally, ensure that the developer understands the importance of effective communication in the context of the project and the team. By addressing the issue early and offering support, you can help the developer improve their communication skills and contribute more effectively to the project.
