Feedback as Career Currency

A couple weeks ago, I had the distinct pleasure of attending an incredible event known as the Rypple/IDEO Learning Collaborative. The L.C. (as we call it) is an ongoing series of events which brings together thought leaders from some amazing organizations like Pixar, Mozilla, IDEO, Facebook, Google, Standford University, and UCLA (among others). We discuss insights, experiments, and stories around professional feedback in the workplace. Indeed a feedback journey!

Since the event was scheduled to take place at Pixar headquarters (check it out!), I took the opportunity to swing by Google and catch up with our good friend Jenny Blake. Jenny is a Career Development Program Manager and the top-related Gen-Y blogger of Life After College. While there she shared her theory about feedback being “career currency” and since I thought it was so awesome, she was kind enough to explain it to you in person (below) and on her blog in her own words. Keep up the awesome work Jenny!

Note: any color coordination between me and Jenny in the video is purely coincidental :)
