Here is a work strategy for thriving teams, since “working out loud” requires a certain level of trust among the team members.
“Working out loud” is a transformative approach to collaboration and knowledge sharing that involves openly sharing work progress, ideas, and learning processes. This method encourages transparency and connectivity within teams and organizations. By narrating what they are doing and why, individuals make their work visible to others, fostering a culture of mutual support and collective growth.
In practice, working out loud can be as simple as regularly updating a shared document, posting progress on internal social networks, or discussing ongoing tasks in team meetings. This openness helps break down silos, enabling colleagues to offer feedback, provide assistance, and learn from one another. It creates a sense of community and belonging, as everyone is aware of and engaged in each other’s work.
