February 06, 2026 The Direct & Diplomatic Guide to Giving Feedback
Ever been told to use the "compliment sandwich"? It might be doing more harm than good. In this episode, we break down the three pitfalls of bad feedback and give you two frameworks—Direct and Diplomatic—to give criticism that is clear, respectful, and actually leads to improvement.
*In this episode, we discuss a personal anecdote shared publicly by Jason Bilyeu on the Design More, Despair Less Podcast (previously Design 30). We’re using it as a case study to explore feedback frameworks. Our critique is of the feedback method, not the individuals involved. All credit for the original story goes to Jason and his show.
