How Designers and Product Managers Can Work Together to Drive Innovation

Pragmatic Live Chat

“In an environment where there is not good collaboration, ultimately, you don’t leverage the expertise of everyone. You’re leaving all these superpowers on the table because people aren’t talking. The key to innovative ideas is leveraging the talents of a whole group.” – Teresa Brazen

In this episode, Pragmatic Instructors Cindy Cruzado and Teresa Brazen discuss how product managers and designers can work together to create intuitive, innovative products.

Cindy and Teresa will provide insights into:

  • Why you should bring in design earlier in the development process
  • How designers and product managers approach the development process differently
  • Navigating the conflict between desirability, viability and feasibility
