A cognitive device that helps me when in the development cycle is a flavor of iterating with the question of &ldquo;how do I make this more intuitive?&rdquo;. This follows from the realization that even for measurement along qualitative dimensions, we generally find comparing two entities (and ranking them higher/lower) easier than to come up with an absolute measure of that quality and resuming with a global sort. Working on concrete iterations also allows me explicitly think out loud in terms of what worked and what did not and then abstract later on for future wisdom.</p>
