Communication allows us to exchange ideas, solve problems and reach our intended goals.

This article discusses how to make providing constructive criticism easier to swallow. It examines the popular 1990s management-training model called the "feedback sandwich," and identifies its three components: base bread, filling and top bread. Then it discusses a newer model named for the communication tool's three middle layers, all beginning with the letter "F"--the "F3 Burger." The article explains how the F3 burger is based on layering information that's effective and easy to digest and discusses how it captures both positive and negative.
