Episode Title: Objective Behavioral Correction: Executing Feed-Forward Directives to Eliminate Operational Friction (Episode 110)

Episode Description: "You caused this massive retention failure because you chose to act like a historian prosecuting her past mistakes, completely destroying her morale instead of simply delivering an objective, forward-looking directive to fix the actual problem."
