A short YouTube talk by Amber Hollingsworth advising that when giving feedback you should always pair positive statements with acknowledgement of good qualities. Positive reinforcement is more effective than negative reinforcement, and failing to recognize someone’s strengths undermines your credibility.
Now, other things that you definitely do need to say, and this is probably the most important thing I'm going to tell you is you need to say every time you say something positive. We all know positive reinforcement works better than the negative reinforcement as far as getting somebody to move along strategically. But we forget sometimes to call out the good things. And not only is it the nicer way to interact with someone just in general, but what happens when you can't acknowledge somebody's good qualities is it makes you lose all credibility.
