The Flywheel Effect of Feedback
summary
Argues that four concrete feedback loops—product, customer, team, individual—create a compounding flywheel: shipping faster via continuous integration and continuous deployment lets real users give product signals; Shopify’s exec tweets get hundreds of responses and a week of new‑hire customer support training forces engineers into customer context; team rituals like blameless postmortems and short retros with one action item stop repeat failures (one incident nearly cost millions but is never repeated after postmortem); Stitch Fix’s clear personable and actionable three‑step feedback recipe teaches usable feedback.
