Even though giving positive feedback is easy, you will often need to provide negative feedback as well. The impact of negative feedback on people varies. Some take it in their stride, some get demoralised, and some angry.\u00a0\u00a0 It is difficult to predict how a person may react to a negative feedback, but by using certain <a title=\"Delivering Constructive Criticism Training Class\" href=\"\/courses\/delivering-constructive-criticism-training-course\" target=\"_blank\">effective techniques on providing criticism<\/a>, you can cushion the blow of a negative feedback and, at the same time, ensure that the receiver of the criticism is not negatively impacted by it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick Up the Positives with the Negatives<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If it is clear that a trainee has done badly, you must communicate that to him or her. What is not clear, though, is how the trainee listened attentively to you during the training. When you have judged a trainee poorly based on the evaluation system, you need to think about the positives that you observed about that trainee. Think of at least two positives. It can be that the trainee is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Hardworking, attentive, persistent, curious (in terms of learning)<\/li>\n<li>Jovial, funny, kind, helpful (in terms of personality)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you cannot find any positives in terms of learning, then you may fall back upon certain personal positive characteristics of the trainee that you observed.<\/p>\n<p>Note that even if you did not observe the trainee and are not aware of what positive personality traits he or she has, you can safely use certain common positives that most of us are eager to believe we possess. Something like \u201cYou have the ability.\u201dor \u201cI see that you are quite bright.\u201dcan work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sandwiching the Negative Between the Positives<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now that you have two positives with the negative feedback, you need to place the negative between the two positives. Something like: \u201cI was glad to see that you were communicating well with the others and having fun. <em>A couple of things I would like you to work on are . . .<\/em> You are quite bright and I am sure you can get those things straight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Showing confidence in the ability of trainees helps them to see themselves confident of making the change. While pointing out to trainees what is wrong and how they can correct it, you need to work on their emotions and make them motivated enough to follow your guidance.<\/p>\n<p>Trainers must have a <a title=\"Training in Critical Thinking\" href=\"\/critical-thinking-training-course\" target=\"_blank\">critical eye<\/a> and they must notice both the bad and the good because both hold equal importance. The bad needs to be corrected, and the good must be used to get the bad corrected.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"\/blog\/emotional-intelligence-eq-course\/including-emotions-rational-thinking-emotional-intelligence-eq-training-brisbane-sydney-parramatta\/\" href=\"\/blog\/emotional-intelligence-eq-course\/including-emotions-rational-thinking-emotional-intelligence-eq-training-brisbane-sydney-parramatta\/\" target=\"_blank\">Related Article&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"\/pd-training-reviews\">Pdtraining<\/a><strong> delivers 1000\u2019s of professional development courses each year in Brisbane, Sydney, Parramatta, Melbourne, Adelaide, Canberra and Perth, so you can be assured your training will be delivered by a qualified and experienced trainer.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>All public\u00a0<a title=\"Train the Trainer Training Courses\" href=\"\/courses\/train-the-trainer-courses\" target=\"_blank\">Train the Trainer Training<\/a> courses include am\/pm tea, lunch, printed courseware and a certificate of completion.\u00a0Customised courses are available upon request so please contact pdtraining on\u00a01300 121 400 to learn more.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Feedback must be provided in a positive manner without avoiding the negative.
