This is the short talk I gave at the beginning of the June 2nd, 2011 meeting of the NYC Agile Experience Design meetup. It is meant to give context to the panel discussion which followed. That consisted of 4 non-designers (dev, product, qa) giving their POV on Lean UX. The full video of that talk is here: http://www.vimeo.com/24638334

Lean UX: Getting out of the deliverables businessJeff Gothelf
This is an expanded presentation detailing how to focus on leaner user experience design methods and reducing the amount of deliverables in your work. It advocates focusing on the actual experience being created and not the deliverable itself as the end state of a project by reducing waste and choosing the right tool at the right time at the right depth.

How to use Lean UX methods to execute on business, product, and design strategy.
I presented a slightly altered version a few days later at Fluxible 2013. (http://www.fluxible.ca)
The term Lean has become widely popular, particularly with the word “startup” attached to it. This has led many people to believe this is an approach to work relevant only to new companies or initiatives. Lean-curious companies who have tried to implement these ideals often stall at one or two teams citing organizational complexities, politics and dependencies as insurmountable obstacles to Lean Startup at scale.
Can Lean Startup practices be scaled — not just as culture and philosophy but as tactical process? In this practical presentation, Jeff will share several methods for scaling Lean Startup techniques in large organizations exemplified in detailed case studies and professional experience. Jeff will cover knowledge management, intra-team dependencies, infrastructure requirements and several other elements of ensuring successful Lean Startup practices in companies of any size.
Presentation from putitout event at Decoded London. Outlines the change to product development process to test ideas early through Lean and UX methods.

Design Thinking in an Agile process: why, how, what's the impact on businessIlaria Mauric
Queste sono le slide del talk che ho presentato sabato 17 settembre 2016 all'Università Ca' Foscari di Venezia in occasione dell'Agile Business Day 2016.
Design Thinking aggiunge cuore e cervello in un processo agile, aumentandone valore ed efficacia. Vedremo le sue fasi fondamentali, accompagnate dai suoi principi guida e spiegate con esempi reali.
Come si può innovare un prodotto? Che problema risolve di preciso? Rispondere a queste domande a colpi di brief, roadmap, requisiti, budget e processo non basta più, perché le soluzioni sono prestabilite su assunzioni, tendono a gonfiarsi di funzionalità o a omologarsi nei vincoli.
Il processo di Design Thinking aiuta ad affrontare i problemi con la mente aperta, ad esplorare opzioni guardandole da più punti di vista e a superarli con un approccio creativo, proiettato verso il futuro. Il ruolo del designer non è più solo quello di rendere usabile, funzionale e visivamente adeguato il prodotto, ma è anche quello di facilitare la collaborazione cross-team e l’esplorazione di soluzioni, presentando concetti e idee in modo tangibile e comprensibile da tutti le persone coinvolte nella sua realizzazione.
Our final class will cover what is expected of a product manager, including the skills, responsibilities and key activities product managers must perform.
This class will present hypothesis-driven development, the cutting-edge paradigm for evolving validated products. We’ll dive into how to frame hypotheses, design experiments, and use A/B testing to gather data to prove or disprove our ideas.
Walk, Don't Run: Incremental Change in Enterprise UXuxpin
You'll learn:
- A realistic approach to product improvement in large enterprises
- How to create and execute a pilot program for overcoming “product stagnation”
- How to scale the program to a growth team dedicated to improving existing products
Maximizing the impact of UX in an agile environment: Mixing agile and Lean UXJohn Whalen
When companies adopt an agile development environment, UX teams often feel like they just lost their seat at the table. It’s never easy to change, but by adapting your UX practices to accommodate agile, you can have the impact on design you always wanted.
This class will introduce the idea of a scientific approach to product development. We’ll focus on how to make sure we build products customers love, starting with how to frame hypotheses and perform user research.
Surviving the Hype: An Experimental Framework for Scaling Enterprise Design T...uxpin
You'll learn:
- How to sustain design thinking beyond the workshop
- How to use “design interventions” to create long-term impact in enterprises
- Best practices for evangelizing enterprise UX based on SAP’s experiments
This is part one of the Lean UX workshops outlining in a practical way, the Lean UX processes. These workshops are run as part of the Lean UX Labs experiment.
Use Lean Startup Techniques on a Remote Team by William Donnell - The Lean St...Lean Startup Co.
A lot of distributed companies use Lean Startup techniques for product development. But it's challenging to successfully run customer development and cross-functional experiments with remote colleagues. William Donnell, lead design and UX specialist at Sodium Halogen, teaches the creative techniques his team uses for very effective Lean Startup approaches on a virtual team.
The Agile UX Equation: How to Implement UserZoom Within Your Agile FrameworkUserZoom
Join Sarah as she walks you through specific examples of how you can leverage UserZoom for UX insights even in the fast-paced world of agile development.
Innovation is thrown around so casually these days it's lost its meaning. This talk spells out how to build a culture of learning based on emergent strategies driven by collaborative, cross-functional teams.
Strategy is a holistic look at product, brand, engineering and design. Carving up unique silos of strategy practice reduces collaboration, increases process bloat and results in slower time to market. This talk describes why identifying a separate user experience strategy falls into this trap and what can be done about it.

Almost Everything I've Learned From 5 Years of Lean UXJeff Gothelf
Since first sharing our agile and ux learnings with the world and then moving the conversation forward into Lean UX, I've had the privilege of spending time with a lot of companies all over the world. This is what I've learned so far about building better digital products and businesses.
Culture is a shared frame of reference for interacting with one another and for interpreting the world in which we live. This common frame of reference includes communication, values, beliefs, and interpretations of experiences. This seminar presented by Dr. Lourdes tells how culture impacts the learning of all students. Sponsored by www.drlourdes.net.

And yet, new data indicates that marketers don’t have the technology in place to optimize their content experience.
If content marketing is important to you (and let's face it: it's important to all of us), it's time to learn the 4 Pillars of Content Marketing framework. Uncover valuable insights into how leading marketers are using their software stack to execute their content marketing process during this technology-focused session. You'll also get insight into areas of the content process in which your technology may be lacking.

Artificial intelligence (AI) offers new opportunities to radically reinvent the way we do business. This study explores how CEOs and top decision makers around the world are responding to the transformative potential of AI.
The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

how do others do it?
We define two types of KPIs. Strategic KPIs measure the
success of the initiative’s strategy and last as long as
the initiative.
Tactical KPIs measure the performance of the initiative’s
tactics and come and go as tactics evolve. All tactical KPIs
must drive a strategic KPI.
