Editor's note
=============
When did you last receive or offer praise? Judging by the
comments posted to Michael Massey's The Way I See It this week
the consensus seems to be that Brits need some training in the
art of giving motivational praise.
Jane Smith offers the suggestion of using a three-to-one ratio of
praise to development comment, or three stars and a wish, as she
puts it. While Peter Hunter puts forward a practical exercise to
help create the discipline of giving praise that he says can
deliver great results.
Read Peter and Jane's comments, or add one of your own:

Elsewhere David Taylor's vision of a people-centred future for
business has gained general support, but not without some
reservations:
