The Design of Everyday Things

“It's funny, I'm not a big, big book recommender. I think when people ask me, I do get asked about books for design, and I haven't found that many that really have stuck with me purely design. Although I will say I do love the Design of Everyday Things. I think that's such a classic.”

01 / evaluation

There's the alignment of getting many people, especially in a bigger company, that still has a lot of overhead. So the point is that I think that we're unclear right now what is expected of a designer and that lack of clarity I can see totally lead to some fears or some unease, I guess.

02 / evaluation

I think that internally we see that more and more designers, we are completely empowered, to take an idea, to take a early research concept and try to figure out how we can actually package that up into something that people want to use or that solves some sort of unmet need for our customers.

03 / evaluation

Because if you have one person that's expected to design, to rally a team around something, to align a whole company, to do all the work that a PM does, for example, and also be designing it and also be engineering it, it might be hard to find one person that's good at all of those different skills.
