Explicit Maturity Over Assumptions
Many organizations assume they are more mature than they are. Maturity is claimed, not examined.
Strategic maturity requires explicit assessment: Which capabilities exist? Which are missing? Where are people compensating for structural gaps?
UX maturity is not a label—it is a developmental state, measurable and discussable.
