Five Ways To ... Hand out Constructive Criticism

Five Ways To ... Hand out Constructive Criticism When it comes to appraisals or having that frank talk about employee performance, bosses are in for a tough time. Often, a critical approach does not go down well with employees, leading to low morale and in some instances, a spate of resignations. Moresha Benjamin lists some pointers on constructive criticism and helping employees give more of themselves at work. Do Your Homework Go through the employee’s work chart from day one.

He discovered a flat tyre when he was about to return from the mental hospital.He jacked up the truck and removed the flat tyre to fix the spare tyre. When he was about to fix the spare tyre, he accidentally dropped all the 4 bolts in the open drain. As he cannot fish the bolts in the open drain, he started to panic as to what should be done? Just then, one patient happened to walk past him and asked the driver as to why he was looking troubled. The driver thought to himself, since there is nothing much he can do or this mental joker can.Just to keep the bugging away, the truck driver informed the whole episode to the mental patient and gave a helpless look. The patient just laughed at the truck driver and said you just cannot even fix such a simple problem? "No wonder you are destined to remain a truck driver for li
