Why Client Advocates Are the New Currency in the Age of Digital Disruption

The sooner business leaders turn their attention from Profit to Advocacy as the primary measure of success, the sooner they will see growth in both.

We often talk about product living at the intersection of technology, business, and UX. And that makes sense in a limited, Venn diagram way of thinking: Product as the place where these things converge. But as we have discovered, using a 3-piece diagram to explain what product is all about is a gross oversimplification. Nina …
