When giving performance reviews, a good deal of managers like to abide by the “compliment sandwich”. Instead of hitting employees over the head with flubs or criticisms from the onset, they aim to offset that with a pair of flatteries.
To start, something soothing is said before the blunt talk. Once the realness occurs, the ending tends to be on an uplifting note. That way, the critiques sting less and folks aren’t left in a salty mood afterwards.
To be frank: that kind of review won’t be occurring here. Revelations will come to light. Well-deserved adulation will occur.
