In the debut of Vibemakers, I sit down with Alan Paulin, founder of Flin. Alan’s background as a software engineer turned cultural innovator sets him apart, and Flint’s approach to continuous performance management is as refreshing as it is needed. He talks about his journey from tech to team-building, and how those years at Cash App gave him a front-row seat to what happens when a team has each other’s backs—spoiler: it’s magic.Flint is taking a wrecking ball to traditional performance reviews, pushing for a real-time feedback approach that Alan believes will transform how teams connect and grow. He wants to make giving and receiving feedback a natural part of the culture, not just an annual checkbox. Alan’s vision? Growth that feels like compound interest—constant, cumulative, and game-changing.One of my favorite moments is when Alan describes Flint’s culture as a “triple play”—it takes every teammate working in sync to make it happen, and when they do, it’s something to celebrate. Alan’s passion for creating agile, human-centered workplaces is contagious, and his love for collaboration and fresh perspectives sets a high bar for what workplace culture can be. This is a conversation for anyone ready to rethink and re-vibe how we look at culture.
