Positive feedback takes as much skill as giving negative feedback. 

• "Good job!" isn't positive feedback. It's lazy feedback. 
• The purpose of positive feedback is to reinforce behaviors that you want replicated in the future. 
• Don't recognize the outcome, recognize the behavior leading to the outcome. 

PRACTICE TIP - think about finishing this sentence - "I really like the way you__________________, because you__________________".
