What you’ll discover

The Glare framework breaks design decision-making into four pillars. Each one tells you something specific about how your team works.

01

Define

Ground the work in real user needs.

How clearly you understand who you’re designing for, what they need, and how you measure it. Strong Define teams turn fuzzy problems into sharp, testable directions.

02

Measure

Turn ideas and hunches into testable evidence.

How you frame concepts, validate hunches, and turn raw signals into findings that move the work forward. Strong Measure teams make ideas falsifiable.

03

Focus

Compare, decide, and direct attention to what matters.

How you choose what to work on, run structured comparisons, and translate evidence into decisions. Strong Focus teams stop debating and start deciding.

04

Lead

Connect design to business outcomes — and prove it.

How design impact shows up in business goals, cross-functional workflows, mapped metrics, and visible results. Strong Lead teams have a seat at the strategy table.
