CHECKLIST TO GIVE A GOOD CRITICISM

1. Check your motive.  Your goal should be to help, not humiliate

2. Make sure the issue is worthy of criticism.  Does it really matter?

3. Be specific.  Don't drop hints, but clearly name the problem

4. Don't undermine the person's self-confidence or identity.  Make it obvious that you value the person

5. Do not postpone needed criticism.  If the issue is big, act now

6. Look at yourself looking at others.  Take a log out of your own eyes

7. End criticism with encouragement.  Finish on a positive note

(John Maxwell)
