Here's how you can foster a feedback culture in your team or organization.
If you want to cultivate a workplace where people feel safe (and empowered) enough to share their perspective, you’ll have to take your ego out of the equation first. Most people cannot do this, which is why feedback culture is so frequently performative. Putting one’s ego in check is hard work under the best of circumstances, but once you develop the practice of listening to others without judgment, you’ll stop being triggered long enough to actually hear them. Other people will soon recognize that it’s safe to share, which kickstarts a flywheel.

Mr. Number product video

We needed a product video to present the value/utility of our Android app to potential users.
Boiling a product down to its barest essence is always a challenge, particularly when you're working on a tight budget and deadline. Still, I think we pulled it off.
I recorded the voiceover in my living room in the wee hours.Other creators -
