Whether through annual performance reviews, quarterly evaluations, or even something as simple as a comment made in passing, both positive and negative feedback can help motivate, inspire, or find new avenues to improve.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph-3\">However, giving feedback isn\u2019t always easy! This is why constructive criticism is key for smoothly-functioning teams: instead of focusing on negativity and sniping, constructive criticism aims to build up an individual\u2019s own performance. See tips on how you can incorporate these critiques into your workplace.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"full-bleed-image\">\n        <picture class=\"c-image\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/m365contenthub.wpengine.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Tips-for-giving-constructive-criticism-at-work-1600x600-1.jpg\" media=\"(min-width:767px) and (max-width:1600px)\" \/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/m365contenthub.wpengine.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Tips-for-giving-constructive-criticism-at-work-1600x600-1.jpg\" media=\"(min-width:540px) and (max-width:767px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/m365contenthub.wpengine.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Tips-for-giving-constructive-criticism-at-work-1600x600-1.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/m365contenthub.wpengine.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Tips-for-giving-constructive-criticism-at-work-1600x600-1.jpg\" alt=\"Five yellow stars\" \/>\n    <\/picture>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Constructive criticism isn\u2019t just about focusing on the negatives.
