    Theory of

    The
    Green Tail!!
    If someone says you have a green tail, that person
    is crazy!

    If two people say you have a green tail, that is


    conspiracy

    If 7 people say you have a green tail, you turn


    around and look.
    A Constructive
    Feedback
    Purpose – To help, not hurt

    It is specific and focused on behaviour that can be


    changed

    Limited to amount of feedback that the


    targeted person can use

    Feedback should be clarified o avoid


    misunderstanding
