“Stop, Telling Me What To Do!” | How to correctly Criticize another person

 

 

“STOP, TELLING ME WHAT TO DO!”

 

 

 

 

 

 

Many people just want to help one another.

 

They see something they think is not right & are quick to jump to “critique” another person.

Thinking nothing of it, they either tell them in person, in public or on a public site.

 

 

 

 

However, correcting someone else can be a very sticky situation:

 

• Is it any of your concern?
• Does it effect you personally?
• Do you specifically & completely understand the meaning of what that person is trying to say?
• Does it have anything to do with you?
• Did the other person ask for your help?
• Are you close enough to that person to correct them?
• Are you a credible “authority” in what you are about to criticize?
• Are you just trying to find fault in someone else because you cannot handle your own issue?
• Are you the one known for correcting others all the time, but your own work is lacking value?

 

 

 

 

Honestly this list can go on with additional statements that have been shared, although, I’m not going to use that kind of language here….

 

 

 

 

 

First of all, there’s a few things you need to consider before you approach someone with your “corrections” or “suggestions”.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

HOW TO CORRECTLY CRITICIZE ANOTHER PERSON

aka

CRITICISM PRINCIPLES

NEVER, condemn / correct in a public arena.

Even if the error is minor, don’t embarrass someone by pointing out mistakes in front of colleagues or the public.

Criticize the act, never the person.

People have emotions that need to be respected.

Never point out the errors, without offering a solution.

The time for correction must also become a time to teach.

Always end with praise.

Some people believe you should start with a compliment & end with correction.  A better way may be to instead reverse it, preferring to end on a positive note.

Criticism should not be an issue between friends, families & others who you are close to, most of the time IF it’s handle correctly.

However, when you feel compelled to correct others, it may be best to keep it to yourself if you’re not the best one to be judging others.

You may mean well, but the other person may view you as the last person to be correcting others.

Be honest, not everyone has the gift of teaching, coaching, mentoring or leadership qualities within them.

“Some things, are better left unsaid”….
