How Projects Build Reputation Through Public Updates
In one sentence
Reputation is built through consistent public updates, not perfect outcomes.
Short answer
Projects build reputation by showing up regularly, documenting progress, explaining setbacks, and sharing evidence over time.
Why updates matter more than outcomes
- Outcomes are often delayed
- Updates show intent and execution
- Transparency builds trust
A missed milestone explained publicly often builds more trust than silent success.
What good updates include
- What was done
- What changed
- What was learned
- What comes next
How profiles enable this
Project profiles provide a permanent home for updates so reputation compounds instead of resetting.
How Karma fits
Karma provides the infrastructure where project updates become lasting reputation signals.
