"I usually take months to finish a book but this one took me 20 odd days. An avid book reader might be surprised by this number, but for me, this has been the fastest. The book I am talking about is Articulating Design Decisions by Tom Greever. Even though I have read only a handful of books, this was the only one that made me pause and take notes while reading."
"Let's start with defining what makes a design successful It solves the problem It's easy for users It's supported by everyone I am going to assume that point 1 and 2 are taken care of. There are a lot of courses and Youtube videos on these that it is almost the basics of getting into product design. Even on the job, this is something you will be mentored on and you'll hone your skills as and when you get more experience."
Successful design must solve the core problem, be easy for users, and gain support from stakeholders. Clear articulation of the design rationale enables stakeholders to understand what problem the design solves, how it affects users, and why it is better than alternatives. Designers often iterate through multiple versions and must prepare concise answers to those three questions. Communication skills influence stakeholder buy-in, but structured explanations, evidence, and comparisons strengthen persuasion. Practical techniques for framing problems, explaining user impact, and comparing alternatives help designers advocate for their solutions and increase the likelihood of adoption.
