Excuse the title, but how many of you incorporate a shit sandwich into your writing? For those who don’t know a Shit Sandwich typically consists of good, bad and good. So whether your writing an article, message to a friend or a forum post it can be included.

 

Do you use this technique or have you heard of it? A lot of managers use this in workplaces.

The 'Shit Sandwich' technique is a very valuable tool that can be used for constructive feedback. You can do this by delivering difficult messages with empathy.

I use this method sometimes when I want to write a controversial topic.

It's essentially a standard approach to delivering negative feedback - to also soften the blow by finding something good to talk about, and lets you frame the negative in a route-to-improvement way rather than just straight negativity.
