44. The new fashion for designer CEOs

44. The new fashion for designer CEOs

Learning notes from this episode:

  • The new breed of tech successes today value people who have a strong understanding of the user, not only engineering.
  • Many of the technologies underlying the products we use today are not as frontier as they used to be. This means that products compete on their usability, not just on functionality.
  • Learn to think like a designer researching an idea. Study people. Understand what they want. Once you do that, then you can think of products to build and find people to help you build them.
