Abstract

After the organization data unearthed in the Discover stage is collected, it is then used to help inform and craft the next phase, the Design stage. The data gathered in the Discover stage provides a platform for meaningful conversation, positions the ROI, and will help you avoid common pitfalls associated with adoption.

Design is not just what it looks and feels like. Design is how it works.

—Steve Jobs
