    Consumer Idealized Design

    Consumer Idealized Design: Involving Consumers in The Product Development Process

    Interactive Design vs. Reactive "Focus"

    A consumer design session is characterized by at least three features which
    distinguish it from a focus group.

    (1) It requires innovation and interaction from participants.

    (2) It is task-oriented, competitive and consensus-generating.

    (3) It requires the articulation and design of the group's notion of the ideal
    in a designated product or service category.


    This concept is based on the idea of Russell Ackoff - articles by Russell Ackoff.
