Hey Design Leader friends. Do you have a bunch of random Miro/Mural boards, Docs/Notion pages or complex spreadsheets showing your current team structure. Do you find yourself constantly updating these documents to explore possible new team combinations? Messy huh?

A fun thing I learned doing research was Pittsburgh's weird belt system came into play during Cold War atomic bomb evac plans. Alas, the conclusion was the same-- traffic is shit; just stay where you are and kiss your ass goodbye.
Also, Total Destruction is my new band name.

One of my favorite operating norms we’ve adopted is “silence is dissent.”
If someone isn’t commenting on your work, presume they 1) disagree 2) don’t think it matters or 3) don’t understand until proven otherwise.
Silence rarely means alignment.

Christopher Columbus' 1492 voyage is what he is best known for, but he lead more expeditions to the Caribbean, as well. After his third, he was charged with maladministration of Hispaniola. He was brought back to Spain in disgrace, and in chains, in 1500. 🧵

This photo was taken at NOON on Dec. 3, 1937. It features #Pittsburgh's now-demolished Wabash Bridge. This smog was supposedly the worst recorded in the City's history.

I have these 5 questions as sections of a Notion template.
Some rules are:
1. We can only define the "What" after we understand the "Why".
2. We can only plan the "How" after the "What" is clear.
3. Defining the "How" implies discussing tradeoffs that affect "Who" and "When".

Make sure that everyone is clear on this allocation.
For instance, way back in the day, Google invested 70 / 20 / 10 % of its time across search+ads / apps / other bets.
This sort of X/Y/Z % framework can be quite clarifying when you’re leading a portfolio of distinct products.
