Outcomes Over Output in Product Delivery

Описание: Building faster does not always mean building better. This conversation breaks down how product teams can avoid “busy work velocity” by prioritizing outcomes, improving UX, and creating a culture where people do their best work.

Matt Elsey, CTO at StrideUX, shares how embedded design and development support helps B2B startups move beyond MVP, strengthen user experience, and keep delivery predictable. The discussion also covers where AI helps, where it does not, and why teams still need strong product thinking and human judgment.
