Why do so many companies feel stuck in an endless cycle of feature requests and customer demands? Often it’s because they’re trapped in a pattern of reacting to their customers instead of leading their customers. In this episode, we break down the three phases companies go through—engineering-led, customer-led, and design-led—and why making the leap to a design-led organization is the key to innovation.

We explore the hidden forces that keep companies from feeling a “glory days” mindset, the difference between simply listening to customers vs. truly leading them, and how to build a product vision that inspires your team while shaping the future of your industry.
