There are a lot of great responses here with lots of detail. But the common theme is empathy. As a guiding principle, think about what each team member needs and how they feel. Doing so would make the type of communication that would help them accomplish their goals very clear. Imagine a car and a driver. Now imagine the car had no gas level gauge. Instead the car has two rules. 1. A driver can enter a destination distance and get a yes/no depending on gas levels, or 2. The car will give random updates of remaining range. Maybe this is reasonable from the perspective of the car designer; I mean how often does the gas state change, isn’t it micromanaging to get updates every second? From the perspective of the driver though, how can they determine how far to go, when to stop to get gas, whether a detour is ok or will exceed range. Empathy goes both ways. Imagine that checking the gas levels is computationally difficult and expensive. Imagine each measurement burns a gallon of gas? An empathetic driver would agree to less frequent readings. So empathy all the things.
