Feedback Request Template for Product Teams

Three to five for most artifacts. Fewer than three risks missing a critical perspective. More than five creates coordination overhead and conflicting feedback that is difficult to synthesize. For high-stakes decisions (strategy docs, major launches), include one representative from each affected function.

Send one reminder 24 hours before the deadline. If they still miss it, proceed without their input and note it in the synthesis. Tell them: "I moved forward with the feedback I received. If you have input after the fact, I am happy to consider it for the next iteration." Do not hold the process for one late reviewer.

Document both positions in the synthesis table. If the contradiction is on a minor point, make a judgment call and note your reasoning. If it is on a fundamental question (scope, approach, target metric), schedule a 15-minute alignment conversation with the disagreeing reviewers. Use the [Stakeholder Alignment Meeting Template](/templates/stakeholder-alignment-template) if the disagreement requires a formal resolution process.

Yes. Sharing the synthesis table demonstrates that you read and considered all feedback. It also surfaces patterns that individual reviewers cannot see. Send it within 48 hours of the feedback deadline with a note: "Here is how I synthesized the feedback and the changes I am making." ---
