[IxDA Discuss] What sets the 'best' interaction designers apart?

[Niklas Wolkert]

IMHO...

Being able to identify, understand and collect crucial user data for one but
then to take that data and with true creativity and 'out of nothing' create
a relevant synthesis of it and shape it into a realistic and attractive
product solution/mock-up.

Even though they can't be separated the first part is the simple part... the
second, being able to perform the creativity part is what sets the 'best'
apart.

No exercise examples though...
