Purposedifferent | When target groups stay too vague and teams talk about the same people differently, personas create a shared, solid picture of usage. Condensed profiles make needs, contexts, and differences tangible enough for decisions. | It separates true priorities from noise so it becomes clear what should be done now, scheduled, delegated, or dropped. | When teams derive needs only from assumptions and real motives are missing, user interviews give direct access to behavior and meaning. Conversations from the target group's everyday life make patterns, tensions, and open questions solidly visible. | The method protects energy and attention for the task that creates the largest progress and is often postponed. |
