The discovery phase isn't only about your users. Its also about your stakeholders. Part of product innovation is the product but the other half in maintaining relationships. During your initial discovery research also take the time to understand what outcomes your stakeholders are anticipating and document them. Scope creep is as real in product management as it is in stakeholder expectations. Be sure to go back to your stakeholders and make a formal agreement on the desired outcome so that you can always refer back to this agreement to hold everyone accountable. As changes come up, reconvene the group, ensure agreement, then make changes to your formal agreement with EVRYONE's input so as to not derail any one person's expectations.

To keep things moving smoothly when working with different stakeholders on product innovation, communicate clearly and make sure everyone is on the same page from the beginning. Understand what each stakeholder wants and be open about addressing their needs. Find areas where everyone can agree, set shared goals, and keep everyone updated on progress. Be ready to solve any problems that may arise, always remember the overall goal, and focus on working together rather than just reaching a compromise ??
