Card N°2: Extreme Users

May 26, 2026
Connect

The second card of the Analytics Product Framework collection is now available: Extreme Users (Methodology card)

One of the most common mistakes I see in organizations is avoiding extreme users during discovery.

Not because they are irrelevant.
But because they create discomfort, friction, complexity, and difficult conversations.

This new card explores why extreme users often reveal:

  • the strongest operational frictions
  • hidden workarounds
  • invisible decision bottlenecks
  • and the limits of current analytics products

You can now discover, download, and share the card.

Announcement: Youtube!

The first YouTube video is now live on the new Dataviz Clarity channel.

I used the previous card, Too Many Chairs, to experiment with a new short-form video format focused on analytics, dashboards, decision systems, and product thinking.

Why discovery workshops fail

Very curious to hear your feedback.

And a big thank you to everyone who encouraged me and shared such positive reactions around this new challenge.

Have a great week.

Whenever you're ready, you can also book a free 45-minute Analytics-to-Decision Diagnostic to identify where analytics breaks down in your organization before more dashboards or AI are added on top of it.

Explore the Diagnostic

Have a great week everyone!
