User Centered Design: guarantee that your business process automation project...Bonitasoft
Wide user acceptance is one of the biggest challenges companies face when launching a new project, product, or service. Any of these can fail for a variety of reasons, but failure is often due to a disappointing user experience.
The process of User Centered Design actively takes into account the needs, expectations, and characteristics of end users at each stage of the development process, leading ultimately to better user satisfaction.
The tools and processes manager of a large French automotive group recently noted, "You have to be user-centric to successfully digitize your processes." End users can feel, “This was actually designed with me in mind - my wants and needs were actually considered before a tool was imposed on me to use.”
From layout to delivery of the first iteration and through continuous improvement, learn how to use the Bonita UI Designer as an iteration tool to guarantee an ideal match with the actual needs of end users.

Process and flows of an IT Project - presentation.pdfCasey Ordoña
Webinar Session (New Era University, College of Information Science & Tech) - Process and flows of an IT project - 2022 Apr 08
attended by 280 students.
Objective: Provide students an overview of how IT Projects advance today's real world.
Get a head-start and effortless transition as you join an organization.
INTRO
Understanding the process and flow of an IT Scheme will enable you to know your advantage in project development. Project Managers, IT Leads, and C-Level Executives expect your best foot forward when joining a company. Obj: Provides students a top-level view on how an IT project moves in the real world in order to get a head-start and easy transition as you join a the working world.
I know that most of you are graduating students or nearing the internship programs, some of you might be in between or are considering becoming a freelancer which is a smart move considering the advent of the remote work in the “new normal” then you will certainly benefit from this topic.
My favorite thing abt my work is simplifying complex information.
So I divided the phases and flows into 5 levels
Now keep in mind, it can be as extensive depending on the complexity of an IT proj but this is roughly the breakdown of each stage.
Let’s have a look at:
- what happens in each phase
- what are the processes and tools are,
- who are involved/ ppl you’ll be meeting,
- what you should do and how you can be useful!
Outsourcing is an imperative process for many companies to stay competitive. However inevitable it is, outsourcing often involves risk and fear to unknown. What are those risk and fear? How to manage them. While some are doing it for years, why can't we? What are the upside and downside of outsourcing?
What's Next: Using technology to engage employees & build businessesOgilvy Consulting
Never before has technology been such an enabler for people and teams as it has since the COVID-19 crisis. While remote working is not new for many organisations, the extent and time is, which businesses are anticipating workforces to be completely virtual. How people engage virtually with each other sits at the heart of business recovery and future business continuity planning.
What you might not know is that at Ogilvy we have a specialist practice dedicated to employee engagement, experience and supporting businesses to get the most out of their people, systems and processes. In this week's webinar, our team draw on their experience delivering programmes through business crisis (shut down and restart), and offer support in how to navigate shocks, high impact events and business change in a sure-footed manner.
Agile Requirements Agile Philly HandoutsDoniel Wilson
Agile Requirements Management is about mitigating risk and considering trade-offs that can be made early in the planning process.
While Agile improves many components of software delivery, one constant struggle for development is being able to accurately discern what the customer wants. This discussion will address common pitfalls in the requirements management cycle.
Don will highlight risks and present several strategies to mitigate these risks to improve the ability to deliver the desired results and the value an agile team brings to the organization.
As the Managing Director of Revolutionary Performance Management, Inc., Don Wilson has analyzed, planned, and implemented technology strategies for top tier companies such as Sprint, Marriott, AARP, and most recently the American Chemical Society. He is a Certified Project Management Professional, a Certified Scrum Product Owner and a Certified Scrum Master. He has a reputation for reviving “troubled” projects, achieving successful outcomes, and exceeding expectations. He is known as the “project-whisperer” for his ability to navigate effortlessly between business and technical groups to identify unspoken requirements.
