You’ve probably already done it. Perhaps you’ll need to justify what you do in an organization or industry that’s just beginning to adopt UX methods or sell UX to secure your position within an organization or get future projects. So, what do you need to know to help you sell UX? What challenges might you face? In this talk, Daniel Szuc will:

   1. Examine what works and what does not work well when selling UX within an organization;
   2. Identify barriers you might encounter to the adoption of UX methods in your organization;
   3. Discuss how to package and present UX to stakeholders.

Not all organizations have the same level of interest and receptiveness to UX. Some just don’t care.

What should we know about an organization that will help us sell UX more effectively? What sort of questions should we ask about the organization, its people and its culture? What can we learn from organizations where UX has become part of the corporate DNA? What factors can increase our chances of promoting UX successfully to an organization now and in the future?

This presentation will tap into more than 10 years of experience in selling UX into different markets and organizations. We will share the successes, pitfalls and failures.]]>

Not all organizations have the same level of interest and receptiveness to the concept of usability – to the usability “story”. Some just don’t care.

What should we know about an organization that will help us sell usability more effectively? What sort of questions should we ask about the organization, its people and its culture? What can we learn from organizations where usability has become part of the corporate DNA? What factors can increase our chances of promoting usability successfully to an organization now and in the future?

This presentation will tap into more than 20 years of combined experience in selling usability into different markets and organizations. We will share the successes, pitfalls and failures.]]>
