You translate their findings into relevant solution ideas and together form new questions to be answered. 
Stakeholder management: With a strong sense of perspectives, you present and argument your design concepts to key stakeholders and gather their feedback to find the sweet spot on solutions where user needs are met and business goals are achieved.
