@gazebo_c Which one is the best one to choose for “no one is listening to the customers and instead we’re building something that no one wants”?

I don’t think it’s politics. I truly believe people are trying to do well. I think it’s a skill problem: they do not know how to work with customers.

@samir thank you for adding this perspective.
I don't think it needs to fit one of my (rough) answer options. I've seen companies where potentially the "too much work, too little headspace" was a pattern and with constantly too busy people, also upskilling was hard to do.
