This is my presentation from the 2006 IA Summit in Vancouver, BC. The summary is that the practice of IA is not about artifacts but the thinking that goes into them and the way you assess which artifacts to use.

IA and RIA: You know more than you think you doAdam Polansky
I’ve been working as an Information Architect for nearly ten years but it wasn’t until recently that I had the opportunity to work on the development of a rich internet application or RIA. While I had made some effort to get an understanding of what an effort like that might involve, like many things, you can’t really get a clear idea what it’s like to do something until you actually do it.
This presentation describes my recent involvement in the development of an enterprise-level rich Internet application. It outlines the things I think are the same, different as well as a few pitfalls to avoid.
Designing Powerful Web Applications Using AJAX and Other RIAsDave Malouf
This is the slide deck from the workshop given at UI11 on October 9, 2006. This presentation was given with myself (David Malouf) and Bill Scott (AJAX Evangelist @ Yahoo!).
The goal of the course was to teach people the basics of Interaction Design and then how to apply those principles to design using RIA technologies like AJAX and Flash.
IUE2009 - Lessons Learned While Integrating a New IA ToolChris Farnum
Presented by Josh Morse, Tonya McCarley, and Chris Farnum on April 2nd, 2009 at the IUE2009 Conference in Ann Arbor.
ABSTRACT
Finding the right tool for the job of constructing wireframes and specifications has been a longtime challenge for User Experience professionals. The longtime standby combination of Visio, Word, and Excel has prompted many to ask "is there a better way?" In recent years, a new generation of tools has emerged that promises improved productivity and integration for IAs. But there are costs to making changes to the established methodologies in our organizations. At Enlighten, the Information Architecture (IA) team recently transitioned from a work flow based on Microsoft Word and Visio to one based on Axure RP. In this presentation we will discuss the issues we considered while making the switch, three examples of projects that Axure made a difference for, and finally some of the issues we encountered and the challenges still facing us.
Making Software for the Software Makers: How Atlassian Teams use Jira SoftwareAtlassian
Ever wondered how internal Atlassian teams push Jira Software to the limit? At Atlassian each team defines a process that best meets their unique needs and challenges. In this talk Product and Marketing Management duo Jason Wong and Jake Brereton will share insights into how Atlassian teams harness and stress test Jira Software to get their teams humming. You'll leave this session with a behind-the-scenes look at how our teams:
- Build custom views that put the right information in front of every team, role, and specialization
- Add depth and accuracy to status tracking with deep developer tool integrations
- Use apps for Atlassian tools to ensure all team members are fully connected to a common workflow
The problems we set out to solve aren’t always the ones that need solving. Adam Polansky will talk about some different ways that you can get under the hood with problems and investigate ways to help real problems present themselves and the criteria you can use to go after them.
IAS18 Fit and Finish: The Importance of Presentation Value to Your DeliverablesAdam Polansky
Revised for IAS18. Discussion about gauging your audience and your deliverables in terms of fidelity. Working lo-fi to hi-fi and doing it publicly. Breaking free from the standard canon of UX deliverables and the best tools you can use.

Speaking to Small Rooms - UX Australia 2017Adam Polansky
Workshop slides from UX Australia - 7 August 2017
Public speaking isn’t just for big rooms with a podium and microphone.
Sometimes it’s just you and 5,10 maybe 20 people. They might be your clients or stakeholders or your project team. Any time you address a group, you need to get your message across and know you’ll be understood. Prep and practice are always important but when you’re speaking close-up there are different things to think about and opportunities you don’t have in a conference hall.
In this half-day workshop, Adam Polansky will cover:
Preparation with long or short notice
Delivery and room dynamics
What to consider when you speak to executives
Keeping the conversation alive after the meeting
We’ll even talk about giving a pitch.
This session will set you up to own the room the next time you have to present.
Fit & Finish: The Importance of Presentation Value in UX DeliverablesAdam Polansky
The most important UX deliverables are your thoughts and observations. Wireframes, Journey Maps, Personae, and slide decks are just the vehicles we use to communicate our ideas. Your content is critical but style plays a role in getting to express your thoughts. Style adds to the context.
- Let’s talk about:
- Deliverables from low-fi to high-fi
- Tools and technique
- Non-traditional deliverables
- How to gauge what’s appropriate for different circumstances
We’ll add some good stuff to your toolbox and give you options the next time you deliver your great ideas.
CanUX16 - Blurred Lines - Considering Physicality in Digital DesignAdam Polansky
Long gone are the days when digital design meant creating apps for someone sitting upright, 18-24 inches away from a screen. Our phones are our computers. We wear our notification systems. We move through a world that plots our position and responds in different ways depending on whether we’re in a restaurant, at a bus stop, near a retailer or at home.
Join Adam as he talks about conceptualizing applications that not only take-in a screen presence but must extend to the unique ways we use technologies and the physical environments that go beyond the screen.
BDLA16 Unpacking UX - Understanding how your skill sets fit togetherAdam Polansky
Big Design Latin America 2016 was held in Quito, Ecuador. This workshop was designed to help different practitioners understand how their work rolls-up into the broader UX umbrella and to help foster an ongoing UX Community in the region.
Presented at the Enterprise UX Meet-Up in Austin 2.24.16
Discusses ways UX professionals to build and gain trust in organizations that aren't immediately disposed to support them. Examine the different roles that can help you along with understanding their concerns and pressures. Use the tools you already have to shed light on the value UX brings to an organization.
I got my first Design job in 1983 with a small ad agency working for a remarkable man. 30 years later, I talk about the lessons I learned and tell stories about how I learned them.
Ideas & Innovation: Simple Premise - Small StartsAdam Polansky
Ideas & Innovation: Simple Premise - Small Starts Innovation is a word that is commonly used and seldom defined.
Ideas occur all the time but do they all deserve the time and effort necessary to realize them?
There is a startlingly simple definition for innovation because innovation, by itself, is simple. It’s also a form of the creative process and can’t be obtained on demand. But when you do come upon something innovative, the real work begins: You have to examine and justify a new idea. You have to convince others that your idea is worthwhile.
Adam Polansky will give you that simple definition and show you how to gauge the merit of an idea along with a short case study about a grass-roots idea that didn’t turn out as planned – it turned out better! He’ll also show you how to frame the discussions you’ll need to have in order to get your ideas off the ground and suggest some other avenues available to move from concept to concrete.
Presentations - It Ain't All About The PowerPointAdam Polansky
This presentation was given at the Big (D)esign Conference in Dallas. Someone titled the session "Presenting in Politically Charged Environments" I don't know who did that but it sounded kind of dangerous so I didn't complain to anyone.
Information Architecture & Why you care about it as a designerAdam Polansky
The Art Institute of Dallas recently added IA courses to their design and multimedia degree plans. I worked with the instructors to revise the curriculum to make it more relevant to actual practice. I also give the introduction lecture.
This presentation is not intended to make converts but rather to expose designers to the role of IA, help them understand the value and be able to identify them in the wild.
Faceted Feature Analysis: Increasing Integrity Through Needs AnalysisAdam Polansky
This article will explain a process called “Faceted Feature Analysis”. The facets refer to the three characterizing facets within any project those being; User Value, Business Value and Ease of Implementation. It also refers to the three constraints that govern every project, those being; Quality, Cost and Time. The process involves characterizing facets and crossing them with the constraints.
