Jumping to building solutions is a nearly universal reaction, which often leads to building something—perhaps something even great—that fails to solve the problem at hand. However, responding and returning to the problem, and iterating quickly in feedback cycles centered around your customer, can lead to a better solution, faster. This deck shares techniques you can start employing today to help you more quickly understand your customers' problem and arrive at a solution that supports their goals.
