If all this science were the end all be all, the low level engineers would be men, and men with their evolutionary handicap for empathy would be none of the managers, leaders, designers, product managers. That's how it is right?
- cpncrunch 9y agoNo. Try actually reading the memo and learn a bit about statistics and bell curves.
- mmirate 9y agoIndependent of the other things wrong with your argument, I find it curious that you think that designers are among those who benefit from empathy. Given knowledge of aesthetics, psychology and the general identity of the target audience, empathy should be all-but-unnecessary for a designer. (Edited for clarity; namely, the italicized clause is new.)
- ebola1717 9y ago? Understanding the psychology and thought process of your target is what empathy means.
- mmirate 9y agoSorry I was unclear. I mean the field of psychology in general (or whatever parts of it are useful for marketing), and the general identity of the target market.
