The document discusses common challenges that design teams face when working on projects. It outlines five key challenges: 1) unclear or differing project objectives between stakeholders, 2) uncertain budget ownership and funding streams, 3) design methods and processes being forced onto stakeholders, 4) team members lacking a shared language, and 5) conflicts between user and business needs. For each challenge, it provides lessons learned, such as the importance of understanding stakeholder motivations, expressing value in the stakeholders' terms, balancing user and business needs, and having a shared project language. The document advocates taking a collaborative approach to design that considers all perspectives.
