Helen Macqueen’s Expertise Almost every human-made thing we see around us was designed and constructed to resolve a problem of some kind. We have experimented and innovated over millennia to find solutions to the problems of shelter, warmth or cooling, health, travel, food, education, communication, personal comfort, societal benefits. Even our own ennui or boredom... I could go on. The solutions to problems may be short-term or they may last virtually forever - for example beer and bread, books and reading. The ones that last become products and take on lives of their own, often creating new problems to solve. As a Product-person I believe that great, lasting products are the ones that provide solutions to either general or specific problems, that deal with the functional challenges, and consider the human or computer user's needs, proclivities and experience levels. Having experienced some shockingly bad product design over the years, I am always on a one-woman mission to improve the space I'm in, to design and build great products that solve problems for people today without creating future problems. As Steve Jobs once said: "Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works." As a Delivery-person, I believe that the absolute vital activity that we must bring to our work is the ability to prioritise. We have limited resources: time, money, attention and mental capacity, goodwill and so on. And yet the problems to solve are infinite. This means we must, must, must choose what we devote those resources to. And like, Deming says, when working out how to prioritise we must ask, "By what method." As a leader, I value integrity in the people I lead and those I'm lead by. I believe that one leads by example, that my responsibility as a leader is to articulate vision and inspire my cohort, to identify and work towards providing the resources and filling the gaps in my team's knowledge and capabilities and removing the hurdles that prevent them from doing their best work. I believe that teams are greater than the sum of their parts and that the best teams are made up of people who bring diverse skills, backgrounds, perspectives and capabilities to bear on the problems they're solving. Creativity = problem-solving. I believe in creating the conditions for people to achieve joy and satisfaction through the work they do.
