Speed is a key ingredient in a successful product design process. After all, if you can’t iterate fast enough, you risk losing the market for your product. Not to mention that a poor design process drains your resources.
But, when a project stalls, too many companies focus on optimizing the process itself, neglecting the people who make that process possible to begin with.
Have you considered that team efficiency might be more of a cultural and emotional challenge than a technical one?
Try fostering empathy across teams for each other's objectives, goals, and even life circumstances. Empathy can get your people through the long days of product design knowing everyone’s pushing towards the same end result.
Listen as host J Cornelius and guest Candice Faul discuss human-first strategies to better your team and, ultimately, your products.
Topics Include
Bringing together each person’s ‘hacks’ to uncover fresh product solutions
Embracing occasional silliness to build cross-team empathy
Translating internal empathy into empathy for your customers to create user-centric products
Building scalable and repeatable processes to drive efficiency through teamwork
