Growing up, I was a perfectionist. I would pore over my work, refining drafts until I felt confident sharing it with the rest of the world. This was certainly what I experienced in my early career—that is, until I arrived at Atlassian.
When I joined the company, I was asked to do all of my work in one of our products called Confluence, which is like a giant internal wiki. Confluence was open by default, which meant everyone could see the early, rough drafts of my work.
