Five Golden Rules
29 June 2021
Every day we all suffer from the sticky shortcomings of many (but not all) of our software tools, wondering how such a mess ever left the oven half baked. John Nack, who recently returned to Adobe after a stint at Google, shed some light on how that happens in a blog post today (while he is on vacation, no less).
At Google, he explains by way of introduction, you are encouraged to slap "a few words of sometimes salty wisdom" on the way out the door. His former colleague Hodie Myeres posted these five golden rules:
- Do things because they are possible.
- Do many things at once and try to spread yourself thin.
- Build the complete system before evaluating the idea. Call it MVP* anyway.
- Never let client feedback or user research distract you from your intuition.
- And remember: It's always more important that you launch something than that you create true value for your users and customers.
That explains a lot, doesn't it?
