Share unfinished work
Sharing unfinished work within your team can significantly boost collaboration, trust, and communication. At Pixar, for instance, showcasing work in its raw, incomplete form has become routine, helping crew members overcome hesitance about sharing their unfinished projects. This openness fosters a culture where creativity thrives and feedback is embraced.[1]
Encouraging your team to share works-in-progress helps combat perfectionism — a significant barrier to innovative thinking. It normalizes giving and receiving feedback, fostering an environment where team members feel safe to experiment and innovate. This practice not only cultivates a culture of constructive criticism but also teaches team members how to offer feedback that promotes growth and creativity.
