"Wearable tech will disrupt mobile."

I think the biggest thing missing from this article - or really this mindset - is that Apple's biggest success was disrupting the phone business. True, they innovated with the iPad…

"And it certainly wouldn't have to be the same "who" all the time." Totally agree. And this is the hard part for leaders -- letting their people make big decisions, because the mis…

This is where a mission and values come into play. Leadership sets the tone and provides a framework (people should have input during this process of course), then gets out of the …

Apple definitely removed as many affordances as possible with each screen, almost to the extreme. Now, have I figured out how each screen works? Yes. Do I think the UI would be imp…

You nailed it. Dribbble excels at featuring and sharing solutions to visual design challenges. Icons. Logos. UI components that show effective affordance (as best you can tell from…
