Meltwater on the New Stack Makers Podcast

Quick Feedback Made Easy Today
Have you ever worked with somebody, and you only found out after 6 months that they had feedback for you that would have greatly improved the way you collaborate. However, somehow that feedback was never given? We have certainly seen this happening in our Engineering teams, and hence we started to experiment with new feedback formats.
In this post, Agile Coach Jamie Green shares what he has learned about the Speedback Feedback format, and how you can use it in your teams.
Meltwater sponsors the CNCF scholarship program
We are happy to announce that Meltwater is sponsoring the Cloud Native Computing Foundation’s scholarship program. The program offers diversity and need-based scholarship to individuals who may not otherwise have the opportunity to attend CNCF events.
The Product & Engineering team at Meltwater strongly believes in the value of such programs, and we are glad that we are able to support this cause.

In this post, Andy Proehl, our director of user experience design shares what we changed and what we learned in the process.
