Great concept. As someone who’s a big fan of journaling and keeping notes, I definitely agree this should be encouraged across teams. In one environment, we introduced a similar practice, though instead of calling them “weeknotes,” we named them Lesson Learned Meets (a different kind of LLM – humor intended).
Like the author mentions, once the habit formed, it actually felt strange to skip a week. Our goal was simple: share with internal staff what went well, what didn’t, and what we could improve.
One line from the article really stood out to me:
“What matters is the habit of writing regularly, and that the notes are easy for their intended audience to find, read, and refer to repeatedly.”
That’s such a powerful reminder, and it rings especially true in my personal experience.
Thanks for sharing, this reinforces the value of consistent reflection in team culture (and in writing, of course).
