Don't do that. High-performing teams maintain a ratio of approxima ~6:1 positive comments for every criticism.

Systematic use of shame aligns with toxic leadership patterns that produce measurably negative outcomes.

Public humiliation at work can compromise social connectedness, threaten an employee's sense of belongingness, and create adversarial environments where constructive measures become impossible. When employees are disciplined publicly in front of their teams, they experience a complex mix of shame and self-doubt directed inward, compounded by anger and distrust directed outward.

Organizations lacking psychological safety fail to create cooperative collaboration environments, directly harming employee well-being and organizational performance.

The scientific literature overwhelmingly supports constructive feedback delivered privately with specific, actionable guidance focused on behaviors rather than personal attacks.
