In this video, we will explore What is Constructive Criticism.
Negative feedback is not always bad, especially when it’s aimed at helping people to improve.

Constructive criticism is a helpful way of giving feedback that provides specific and actionable suggestions.
There is a big difference when somebody gives you a negative feedback that is aimed at putting you down.
And Constructive Criticism that is aimed at showing your shortcomings so that you can improve for the next time.
Let’s say you do the presentation at work and 2 managers give you the feedback. First one says that the presentation was bad. You can simply discard this as there is no value.
Second manager says that your presentation was weak, because your planner presentation time was 30 min, but your presentation was 45 minute. And you only covered 3 points out of 4.
This is Constructive Criticism and you have to take it on board so that you can improve the next time.
If you want to learn how to give Constructive Criticism then here are some strategies for you:
First - Use a feedback sandwich. Instead of just telling a person what went wrong you can start with a positive point, then deliver Constructive Criticism and finish off with another positive thing.
Second - Focus on the situation and not the person. This will make your criticism less personal and easier to process.
Third - Be Specific. Instead of being broad and saying that work done poorly you can be specific and mention delivery time, volume or depth of it.
Fourth - Suggest improvement. If you know how a person can improve then give them suggestions so they can improve quicker.

I hope that you enjoyed this video and I was able to give you a quick summary of what Constructive Criticism is and how to give Constructive Criticism to others.
