Designing Your Future Through Behavior Change
Ever wondered why we know what we should do but fail to follow through? The answer lies in understanding behavior change as a science rather than an art. Instead of starting with solutions, we need to begin with the end in mind - the specific behavior we want to create - and work backward. This approach flips traditional product development upside down by examining actual human behavior before crafting solutions. When Microsoft's Bing team wanted to increase student searches, they discovered teachers' concerns about inappropriate content were the primary barrier, not student motivation. By addressing these specific concerns through a specialized version with locked SafeSearch and no ads, school-based searches increased by 40%. "When [population] wants to [motivation], and they [limitations], they will [behavior] (as measured by [data])." This simple formula creates accountability by forcing clarity about who we're targeting, why they would act, what conditions must exist, what action we want, and how we'll measure success. Consider Microsoft's revolutionary vision: "a computer on every desk running Microsoft software." While groundbreaking, it focused on ownership rather than meaningful usage, leading Microsoft to prioritize sales over user experience. When Google Docs emerged with a usage-focused approach, Microsoft had to pivot dramatically to Office 365. Effective behavioral statements should be bold rather than timid - Uber didn't aim for people to "sometimes" use their service but to make it the default choice for all point-to-point travel.
