Lateral thinkers with infinite curiosity, Business Designers are always discovering game-changing insights and then creatively combining them to form the next great product, service, or business. They are strongly opinionated and ready to defend those opinions at a moment's notice. However, their commitment to the scientific method means that no opinion is beyond reproach. That's why challenging assumptions and breaking down biases in pursuit of the best path forward motivates Business Designers. When combined with their entrepreneurial attitude, they see opportunities for improvement everywhere and are often found trying to bring those improvements to life.
