12+
13+
## Context
14+
15+
Many times, the organization finishes the prototype and delivers it to the client, the client doesn’t know how to work with it. The company sees this as it was client fault and in reality, it is because the product is too complex, or it was not present in the right way to the client.

21+
- The product can be abandoned.
22+
- The team needs to work again on the product.
23+
- Team sometimes can’t see/face the reality.

25+
## Causes
26+
27+
- Products are too complex.
28+
- The organization’s perspective is not the same as the client’s perspective.
29+
30+
## Solution
31+
32+
- Improve the product by turning it into something easier to understand.
33+
- Test the product with the client.
34+
- Encourage user’s feedback.
