The Colours of Design Cultures
summary
A pilot of 20 designers takes the Gallup StrengthsFinder and clusters results into a five-color framework (white, blue, black, red, green) that maps personality to specific roles and failure modes; findings show most people have three colors, few have five. Examples: 70+ design iterations stopped only after measurable success metrics; a Medium publication ships by letting passionate writers own it; design ops and service blueprints are the actual tools used.
