Thank you for the insightful podcast. Learned something new. 😊 I have a friendly advice though 😇 - > get a professional podcast host who doesn't say "aah" every second.

Stumbled on this old video of an old friend going all the way back to college. I miss my days working with Kai at Intel and all the great products and experiences we worked on over the years. If anyone has the chance to work with Kai, do it!
Thank you for this. We’ve envisioned Supernar since August 2023 and the develops we contracted to are delaying the process. After watching this, I’m going to ensure we enter the market by 9th of April (and worst case senerio would be launching before the end of this month) Thank you✨
I've yet to work at a company where design sprints are even remotely a possibility. Where do you work that you can get stakeholders in a room for 5 days?
The Fisher space pen is not a great example. It's a misconception a pencil was as good of a solution. NASA tested pencils and found that the graphite dust was a major issue. So the market need was actually a dust free writing utensil that functions in micro gravity. It still may have been over engineered, but the Russian's pencil did not actually have market fit.
It's funny watching this in 2023, as if the same talk as done today it would be Teresa's book up there and all she predicted in now the norm #prophet 😄
It's not quite right that Agile doesn't talk about customers. Even it's quite the opposite. Agile puts emphasis on velocity to ship a product quickly so that you can get feedback from customers early on and then adjust your product iteratively. What went wrong is that we practice Agile in the wrong formate or half format and then blame that it's not working.
