The core value of problem space research is that it helps you to get outside of your world. You have to get into other people's worlds to be able to see new paths forward and new ways to support people. It will give you a solid foundation for product strategy.

Always assume you don't completely understand something. It will foster humility and create more opportunities to learn.

Whether you’re a small startup or large company, the rate of decisions you can make that turn into value for customers is one of the most important drivers of success. Always good to reduce the number of dependencies to getting those decisions made.

Under pressure, we often create solutions that only graze the surface of the problem, or that only solve the problem for people who think like us. We need to slow down and take the time to listen to the people who are experiencing the problem.

Your intelligence cannot be measured by a number. It is defined by your willingness to learn, solve problems and try new things. You are more than just a number. Develop your skills. Share your brilliant ideas. Your skills are more valuable than your grades. 🧠

Design is policy.
Design is research.
Design is behavioural.
Design is organizational.
Design is communications.

Design is everything.
Everything is by design.

The world needs us to start basing our designs in reality. Only from there can we look at designing for the future.
