@yot88 Feedforward The "feedforward" consists to formulate requests or propose future-oriented options or solutions, as opposed to the feedback technique, which looks back on a past situation. Example : For your next report, I suggest that you divide the summary of your activities by date or by function (budget, planning, operations management, ...). So that it will be easier to read it, to find the information I need and to refer to it later.
