“I could just tell you what to do, or we could explore it together. The first is much faster to deliver. The second usually works better.” – Carl Ingalls
Teaching vs. Criticism
Teaching is the process of delegating thinking to the student. The art of asking questions to teach has prerequisites and can only be applied when functioning within The You Pyramid™. The anti-thesis of teaching is criticizing.
Constructive criticism is the politically correct way of seeking agreement from or forcing agreement on someone else and masking it as a virtue.
Constructive tends to build up and to serve a useful purpose.
