The talk

We all need feedback to improve, but most of us lack the tools to be able to give and receive feedback well. Taking a lesson from the arts, a critique is a useful tool to create healthy conflict. Heat can bring energy and life to work. By moving the implicit to the explicit, we can prepare ourselves for a different interpretation of our work or ideas with the intent to listen and grow but not always agree.
