Lean Resources Development, From Guam To DC, Monty Campbell, Lean Mobile Apps...Lean Startup Co.
By running a Lean hackathon for underprivileged communities in Guam and DC, Lean Mobile Apps was able to maximize visibility for their idea. By tapping into their team resources to implement no-nonsense strategies with measurable results, they brought in relevant users—who then provided solid data that appealed to would-be investors and sponsors.

The Lean UX Agency—What "running lean" means for a user experience and design agency
CHEAP is about playing it safe, keeping a singular focus, remaining unresponsive to signifiers of change, and spending as little as possible to bring in money quickly.
LEAN is about spending money to reach some fun, ambitious goals; and utilizing smarter processes to find the most effective and efficient way to reach those goals, while maintaining the ability to adapt and react to changes in the marketplace.

Presented at the 2015 Annual Conference of the American Evaluation Association #eval15. ABSTRACT: Recent attempts at developmental evaluation (DE) are incorporating human-centered design (HCD) principles (Dorst, 2011; IDEO, n.d.) to facilitate program development. HCD promotes a design-oriented stance toward program development and articulates a set of values that focuses the evaluation beyond those ideals expressed by stakeholders. Embedding design into DE promises to offer a more powerful means to promoting program development beyond either approach alone. Yet, embedding design into DE introduces additional challenges. Drawing on a case study into a design-informed DE, this panelist discusses the tensions and challenges that arose as one developmental evaluator attempted to introduce design into a DE. Insights from the case study point to the importance of:
- Attending to power dynamics that could stifle or promote design integration; and,
- Evaluator sensitivity over the deep attachment program developers had over program decisions
These findings allude to the significance of organizational culture in enabling a design-informed DE.

An oft heard conversation around coffee tables -
How can activity metrics in a web execution go down while those on mobile go up for the same experiment? There is something wrong with the data, lets go to the Analytics team and check up!
And thus begins the march to the analytics teams of many professionals. Why that team? Because they are the custodians of something valuable and something that has changed the way companies work in the past 24 months. That something is ‘Big Data’!
Why is Big Data getting “Bigger”
Big data was something that companies started getting comfortable with in 2013. Last year was where Big Data truly started going mainstream with a lot of experiments getting done both on Web and Mobile on the back of Big Data. I have captured all of that and more in the Infographic below. Do check the same and express your views

Finding Balance in the Techpocalypse
There is plague that has creeped it's way into our culture...a pixel plague. We have slowly been tricked into thinking that late nights, pounding down energy drinks, and neglecting the relationships around us is something to boast about. It is essential that we as designers, entrepreneurs, and creatives understand the need for balance in our profession.
With many years in the tech industry working with leading tech companies, Joel shares some of the patterns that have been beneficial not only in producing, but growing, and growing. Balance is crucial, and we must fight this plague of imbalance that has become the expectation.
As designers and creators we assume responsibility to craft products, experiences and things around us - a role better tempered by research and education than one's personal perspective or taste. It's too easy for us to absorb current viewpoint
Bedrijven hebben geen “ideeën" probleem; de meeste bedrijven hebben een stapel aan goede ideeën klaarliggen. Maar ze hebben wel een “breng het idee op de markt” probleem. Dat komt omdat bedrijfsleiders te veel de nadruk leggen op analyse op een moment dat ze de minste informatie hebben. Ze besteden veel tijd aan het afstemmen met stakeholders in plaats van snel te evolueren. Tegelijkertijd besteden ze weinig tijd aan het maken van een inschatting met betrekking waarde creatie. Welke producten creëren echt (meer)waarde?
Een Design Sprint speelt in op deze tekortkomingen door een reeks activiteiten die een idee omzetten tot iets dat een grotere kans heeft om te slagen in de markt. Wij, bij Craftworkz, geloven erin dat het focussen op concepten boven ideeën de kern raakt van wat bedrijven moeten doen om hun innovatieproces te verbeteren.

The Fascinating World of Bats: Unveiling the Secrets of the Night
Bats, the mysterious creatures of the night, have long been a source of fascination and fear for humans. With their eerie squeaks and fluttering wings, they have captured our imagination and sparked our curiosity. Yet, beyond the myths and legends, bats are fascinating creatures that play a vital role in our ecosystem.
There are over 1,300 species of bats, ranging from the tiny Kitti's hog-nosed bat to the majestic flying foxes. These winged mammals are found in almost every corner of the globe, from the scorching deserts to the lush rainforests. Their diversity is a testament to their adaptability and resilience.
Bats are insectivores, feeding on a vast array of insects, from mosquitoes to beetles. A single bat can consume up to 1,200 insects in an hour, making them a crucial part of our pest control system. By preying on insects that damage crops, bats save the agricultural industry billions of dollars each year.
But bats are not just useful; they are also fascinating creatures. Their ability to fly in complete darkness, using echolocation to navigate and hunt, is a remarkable feat of evolution. They are also social animals, living in colonies and communicating with each other through a complex system of calls and body language.
Despite their importance, bats face numerous threats, from habitat destruction to climate change. Many species are endangered, and conservation efforts are necessary to protect these magnificent creatures.
In conclusion, bats are more than just creatures of the night; they are a vital part of our ecosystem, playing a crucial role in maintaining the balance of nature. By learning more about these fascinating animals, we can appreciate their importance and work to protect them for generations to come. So, let us embrace the beauty and mystery of bats, and celebrate their unique place in our world.
