This weeks reading was all about learning how to give useful criticism.
When it comes to criticism within design or business, it is good to get feedback that is unbiased and not opinionated.

The article is by The Closet Entrepreneur, here’s the link. (i hope it works)

Sometimes giving criticism can lead to disputes or arguments if it is not given correctly. A lot of the time people may say ‘ I like it’ or ‘ I don’t like it’ and huge very opinionated feedback about their feelings towards the piece of work. This is not helpful as each person is going to have a different view on the piece.
Constructive criticism is when the viewer gives honest feedback that is backed up by information so for example when it comes to colour theory, 10% of males are red green colour blind so using those colours in a logo is potentially losing customers, the same with suggesting a more suitable font type for a business.

When given correctly, constructive criticism can be extremely useful and may be the one thing missing from a piece of work.
