seven d.buzz words + phrases

  1. codify
  2. tee up
  3. unpack
  4. debrief
  5. radical collaboration
  6. POV
  7. framework

today marks the end of my third month at the d.school, and it’s been quite a wild ride. at times it feels like i’m living in a new country and learning a new language (and then having to teach that language to everyone who comes through here — students and executives alike!), so these are a few phrases that i hear alllllll the time around here.

go ahead, say radical collaboration five times, fast. ready….go.
