Steve Jobs
You can't just ask customers what they want and then try to give that to them. By the time you get it built, they'll want something new.
Give them what they need, Not what they want!

Understand your users, how?
Wrapping-up with 10 take-aways
1. Manage your Digital project / Web presence / Website as a product, not only as a project.
2. 1st understand your Digital Business drivers and indicators, no product management without it.
3. Now, User comes first. 4. Doesn’t mean he is right. 5. It’s all about Iteration and Agility. Balancing long and short term. 6. Don’t be slave of the methodology or tools. 7. Less is more. Let the simplicity decide. 8. Don’t focus on the tools and the technology, they are here to help - disposal technology 9. Communication, communication, communication. 10. It’s not so much about ideas. !
