You’re having trouble motivating your team. What can you do to get them excited?
Remember that "empowering" the team doesn't mean they magically have the necessary power to remove things standing in their way. Show up to their sprint reviews. Ask questions about what's slowing them down. Then aggressively leverage *your* power to address those issues.

What are the common mistakes people make when giving feedback?
Don't forget to include the *why* behind your feedback. Most people will become more empowered if you provide the background. Understanding a past issue that can be avoided by adopting the feedback, or an advantage you've seen, etc. can help provide a context and framework which lets the recipient get more on board with making a change.
