Becoming aware of prior art seems to be a waning skill. There is a lot of "yet another" product int he market, mostly because people fail to understand what's been done before so they can focus on what's new and unique.

Reading a variety of sources helps.

Reading to fuel your confirmation bias doesn't help.

In this post, I’ll argue that #designers need to incorporate #storytelling to their #facilitation #toolset for better #ideageneration and creating shared understanding
