Industrialization in the late 19th century brought both benefits and drawbacks to the United States. While new technologies and industries increased productivity and economic growth, they also led to monopolies, unsafe working conditions, environmental degradation, and inequality. The rise of big businesses like Standard Oil and U.S. Steel through consolidation brought great wealth for some but also restricted competition and hurt consumers. Workers faced long hours, low pay, child labor, and unsanitary living conditions in urban areas. Events like the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire highlighted the human costs of industrial progress without adequate protections and regulations.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

• growing labor force-immigration
innovation in technologies (inventions & innovation)
“social Darwinism” philosophy
• laissez-faire government policies

11. Americans Invest in New
Technology
capitalists provided $ for
scientific research that led
to new inventions
capitalists provided $ to
build RR’s, mills, factories,

capitalism-economic
system in which factories,
equipment, and other
means of production are
privately owned
