      1. Had some light-bulb moments today whilst noodling on why design handover is hard (and getting harder). Some thoughts: 1. Work is being done increasingly async from one-another on a team. Either through remote working, async priorities across a team, and conflicting needs.

      To mitigate 1… 2. Verbose, comprehensive documentation (design systems et al) exist to reduce synchronous conversations that can’t scale. Work is async thrown back and forth over walls.

    3. Our assumption this is because of a disconnect between eng and design habits, culture, work streams etc. But, in reality, maybe it’s an issue of async and sync.

      Which is a tricky problem. Not enough people to work synchronously on all things all the time.
