You cannot ask a designer to design and have many meetings during the week. We need time to deep think, process and explore. Especially with product design. A simple 30 minute meeting is actually an extra 1-2 hours of wasted potential design time. Why? Because we’re so lost in our heads thinking through a million solutions, we have to stop designing 30 minutes before, during the meeting, then it takes at least 30 minutes to try to get back into the mental spot and resolve the million solutions to get back to where we left off. Design is deep thinking and every meeting interrupts that. It’s one of the biggest challenges designers have when leading a product. Remember, your 30 minute meeting is actually almost 2 hours of lost design time. Make it worth it.
