Your team spent six weeks on a feature that got rejected in the demo. Your engineers built a prototype that totally missed the mark. This misalignment is the design fog, and it’s where most product failures are born in the uncomfortable space of the fuzzy front end. In this episode: • Learn why jumping to prototypes introduces fixedness, robbing your team of the chance to define true user requirements. • Understand the symptoms of the design fog, including the silent assumptions problem and t...

Confidence is a Dial: Turn It with Evidence, Not Guesswork
We turn late-stage design surprises into a strategic plan by assigning explicit confidence levels, stacking evidence, and using the three-dial model of time, cost, and confidence boost. We show how to work backward from a system test to cheaper steps that drive faster, clearer decisions. • applying the three dials of time, cost, confidence • sequencing with the work-backwards strategy • avoiding overtesting, undertesting, wrong testing • turning confidence into a team communication tool • pr...
