Born to Create: How Creativity Sparks Connection, Innovation, and Belonging in our New World of Work

by Anne Jacoby

LAKSHMI You’re right, no, I just want it to be as good as it can be. JEREMY Me, too, Lakshmi. And it’ll get there. (pauses) I’m going to share two specific pieces of feedback today. The first is what I think is working really well in the proposal—where I wouldn’t change a thing. And the second is where I think you have room to push the boundaries a bit. How does that sound for the rest of our chat? LAKSHMI That would be great. JEREMY As I share this feedback, do your best to take it all in, and jot down any clarifying questions you might have. At the end, I’d love to hear what lands with you and where you might even push back. Who knows, maybe I got something wrong. Or maybe you can refine things just a smidge, which would shift my perspective. But I’d love to see you take the feedback I share and do a second pass of the proposal. We can then regroup after that. Is that all okay by you? LAKSHMI Absolutely. Let’s get started. (END OF SCENE)
