Does your team struggle to balance big ideas with practical execution? Do brainstorming sessions feel endless, or do rigid processes stifle innovation? In this episode of Humans First, Visual Logic’s Andrew Sladky, Kayla Byington, and Nick Bray explore how understanding the roles of generators and synthesizers can transform the way teams collaborate and make decisions.
Drawing from Kim Goodwin’s Designing for the Digital Age, they break down how generators push boundaries while synthesizers bring order—and why teams need both to succeed.
Discover how embracing these roles can lead to better collaboration, more effective decision-making, and stronger product development. Learn how to identify these traits in yourself and your team, and optimize the way you work.
