Depthfinding: Putting It All Into Practice

In this miniseries, we’re exploring Depthfinding—an easy-to-grasp framework designed to help leaders and teams solve their gnarliest cross-functional challenges. This week, Rodney and Sam reflect on what they’ve learned over the course of this eight-part miniseries—about the framework, their own Midnight Zones, and what it means to navigate complexity amidst uncertainty. They share how their thinking has evolved since launching the series, when Depthfinding is most useful (and when it’s not), and why every organization eventually has to ask: Who are we designing for? The end of the miniseries isn’t the end of Depthfinding. Now it’s time for you to dive in. Download the Depthfinding guide⁠ to get the template and examples of how to use it.
