It outlines minimum requirements including graphic sensibility, professional quality, clear context and storytelling, sketching, modelmaking and prototyping, and attention to detail. It then discusses adding extra elements like focusing on the work rather than formatting, showing passion and enthusiasm, and unexpected "magic" that makes reviewers take notice.

Bradford Wilkins, VP, Talent Management, Adcap
Identifying and developing top talent is a consistent struggle for organizations both large and small. Many companies invest heavily in the training and development of their employees, but what would be the return on investment if companies leveraged apprenticeships—with a modern twist, of course—executed through an integrated acquisition, development, and succession plan? That is what Adcap Network Systems, a leading Cisco integrator in the Southeast, did by creating its sales and technical apprentice programs, which resulted in a 34 percent revenue increase in the program's first year and 64 percent increase in the second. In this high-energy session, Brad Wilkins will share the strategic and tactical tools necessary to create an entry-level sales apprentice program, which you can use in your organization to successfully identify and develop superstar sales reps while increasing revenue.

Design Beyond the Screen - Introducing Service Design Thinking to UXPhilip Bonhard
User Experience design has come a long way since technology has become an everyday part of our lives. We almost can't imagine a life without googling random facts, comparing prices for flights, insurance or any other product we can get online or in the high street.
The consumerisation of technology has led to higher expectations of intuitiveness and ease of use of our devices, websites and apps. User friendliness in technology is not a key differentiator anymore when consumers interact with companies via their websites, apps, phones and high street shops.
Companies don't just sell products online anymore, they provide services through a variety of channels. This requires designers to think beyond the screen. Service design thinking considers technology in its wider context of use and not just the immediate user interactions.
This talk will give you a introduction to what service design is and how it is different from user experience design. It will include some design principles that are applicable beyond the screen and how they relate to user experience and service design. And finally you'll find out about the realities of doing service design in the wild. You'll see a comparison of the wonderful theory of service design with the harsh reality of large organisations, which often need service design the most.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.
Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
You could be a professional graphic designer and still make mistakes. There is always the possibility of human error. On the other hand if you’re not a designer, the chances of making some common graphic design mistakes are even higher. Because you don’t know what you don’t know. That’s where this blog comes in. To make your job easier and help you create better designs, we have put together a list of common graphic design mistakes that you need to avoid.
