Here are some ideas about how to give what we call developmental or constructive feedback

Hi People
please help explain the meaning of " call " in this sentence
" If this sounds familiar to you, here are some ideas about how to give what we call developmental or constructive feedback (note: not criticism) to people – i.e. when we want them to change/improve what it is that they do – in a way that reduces the risk of them taking offence."
Thanks

Here is how you can rephrase the text:

If this sounds familiar, here are some ideas for giving people developmental or constructive feedback (note: not criticism) - i.e., if we want them to change/improve something - in a way that reduces the risk of them taking offense to it.

So, ‘what we call’ means ‘what define as’ or ‘what we refer to as’.
