Let’s talk about some #negotiation and #ConflictResolution techniques to channel the energy of conflict into productive interaction, that is, constructive disagreement, an open exchange of #ideas, and #learning from different points of view.

Let me show you how to use #JobsToBeDone (#JTBD) to facilitate the two-way #negotiations between #leadership and #ProductTeams that allows for managing by #outcomes.

In this post, I argue that – while #Designers or #Strategists are not expected to fully manage #DesignProjects in their area of responsibility, some #ProjectManagement #skills will prove invaluable for their effectiveness.

The gap between #asynchronous #communication and the strategies we got used to lies in the inability to embed some personal touch and #humanity, and keeping everyone on the same page.

Conflict arises in every team, but #PsychologicalSafety makes it possible to channel that energy into productive interaction.

In this post, I talk about the need for creating visibility and traceability systems to capture and track the progress of the execution of #ideas by comparing desired outcomes with actual outcomes so that you can adjust your #strategic choices accordingly.

Let's talk about how we can facilitate #pivot and #RiskMitigation discussions while pursuing #ideas, what #methods, #tools, or techniques are available, and what signals we need to capture to know if we should #Persevere, #Pivot, or #Stop.

If you can come up with clear, concise answers to each of these questions you’ll be able to give your team clear direction on where to #focus and #align their efforts on their next initiative. #DesignStrategy #SharedUnderstanding via @jboogie@twitter.com https://jeffgothelf.com/blog/5-questions-to-define-your-product-strategy/

In this post, I’ll focus on how to help teams facilitate investment discussions by finding ways to remove (or at least reduce) subjectivity when we compare, contrast, or debate the value of #ideas, approaches, and #solutions to justify the investment on them.

Reducing the cost of #collaboration overload is an #analytical challenge. #Leaders can track #financial expenses down to two decimal places, but they often have minimal understanding of how people are spending most of their time collaborating each week. #Managers are overspending their people by asking them to collaborate so broadly and frequently on all forms of work without understanding the true costs.

In this post, I talk about the need for a set of #tools for #Quantifying and #Qualifying #strategy that both empowers #intuition and #creativity, but also helps #teams find objective ways to assess the #value of #ideas and #designsolutions to justify the investments in them.

What slows progress and wastes the most time on #projects is confusion about the goals or which things should come before which other things.
In this post, we will talk about how #prioritization can help us focus on what is important, steering us closer to our #vision and #goals.

In my experience, #teams cannot #innovate – not for the lack of ideas but – because of all the friction or drag created by not having a #sharedvision and understanding of the #problems they are trying to solve.
Let's talk about #strategy and the importance of #vision, especially while creating a #sharedunderstanding of #productvision.

An important aspect of creating #sharedunderstanding within a #team is to develop shared #memories and #meaning. Research shows a powerful connection between #story, #place, and #emotion and building memories
In this post, I’ll argue that #designers need to incorporate #storytelling to their #facilitation #toolset for better #ideageneration and creating shared understanding

Well-placed, appropriately timed, #thoughtprovoking questions help us think through our decisions. Let's check how to ask to ensure #teams make #gooddecisions and paddle in the same direction

In this post, I’ll argue for the Need for #Facilitation in the sense that — if #designers want to influence the #decisions that shape #strategy — they must become skilled #facilitators that respond, encourage, guide, and #coach as they guide individuals and groups to make #decisions that are critical in the #business world through effective #processes.
