@itsdanwu@epatt6 Engage with Eng/Design as early as you can and usually at the 0.5 draft level

- Ideate "with" them
- See if they want to come along during the research
Eng/Design input early on helps with discovery too.
Good product development is about learning:
🔎 How to find customer problems
📐 How to size it
💡 How to brainstorm solutions
🏗 How to build it
🛍️ How to sell it
🤦 How not to screw it up
🍀 How to be lucky
“The goal is not to take what we already do and do it faster or more efficiently. The goal is to have more information and flexibility in our process so we can make better decisions and better products.”
