• Appreciate: The receiver should listen with an open mind and show gratitude for the feedback, recognizing it as an act of generosity.

• Actionable: Feedback must be specific and practical, detailing what the recipient can change.

“Is it ethical to look over an employee if they're doing their very best but failing in the deliverable?” Absolutely yes. THIS is the problem with a lot of businesses. You don’t need a reason beyond bad performance to fire someone

It doesn’t encourage working harder.

Receiving feedback - fight natural defensive reaction and instead ask yourself how you can show appreciation for the feedback considering with an open mind
