UX + BA: Working Together In Harmony [updated]Jacklyn Burgan
Talk given at Web Afternoon: UX Edition on August 28, 2015.
By combining the efforts of business analysis and user experience design, building efficient, easy to use software that achieves the goals of both the business and the users is easier. User Experience and Business Analysis are two disciplines that apply analysis and design thinking during the product and software development process. Both roles are unique and the people that fill them have different strengths, but often times the roles overlap. In this talk, I'll explain how I worked through UX/BA clashes, what I learned from those experiences and provide you with new strategies to take back to your workplace that will help you to improve the collaboration across your teams and ultimately create a better product.

DesignChain Business-by-Design Workshop Pack for IIBACraig Martin
There are a number of disciplines that provide “services” to an organisation. The challenge is that these disciplines are often overlapping, resulting in a loss of coherence amongst the actual disciplines and individuals that are meant to CREATE synergy and coherency.
How can we create synergy between design thinking, architecture thinking and agile thinking? Is there room for hybrid thinking?
There is also a lot of noise around tools and techniques within each of these disciplines. The challenge is how do they relate to one another? How can we build on these tools and techniques in a manner that not only extracts value from each but also facilitates a more coherent and higher value conversation with business.
In this whiteboard workshop aimed at Senior Business Analysis and Strategic Business Analysts, Craig will take attendees through a process of linking human centred design thinking, with strategic and business planning, business architecture and agile thinking.
Learning objectives:
Understand and be able to sell the value of the 4 disciplines
Understand how the 4 disciplines interact and when and where to use them
The 4 disciplines:
Design Thinking
Strategic Thinking
Business Architecture Thinking
Agile thinking

Birgit Mager & Tina Weisser: 24 Success Factors for Brilliant ImplementationService Design Network
No longer is service design a playground for pretty storyboards – it has become an essential driver for innovation and creator of value for relevant stakeholders. And this value is created through implementation. Still: brilliant concepts often fail when it comes to implementation. Finding answers and better understanding the complex drivers for implementation, barriers and success factors was the motivation behind a 3-year international study. The talk will present the key findings of this study, which investigated complex service design projects at the interface of external SD consultancies and their clients.
Talk on the importance of Service Design Thinking, how the evolution of Design and business leads to Service Design Thinking, overview of Service Design Thinking process and key artifacts used.
Those who don't learn from history are doomed to NOT repeat it.
We know the old adage, but the other reality is that there's nothing new under the sun. The same goes for the practice of User Experience (UX) and it goes back further than you might think.
History can be fun – especially when we see how it relates to our ever-expanding and shifting industry of today. This presentation is geared to new practitioners who want to understand the foundations of our field and veterans who would like to see a different perspective on our profession. Let's look at the practice of UX through a historical lens at some of man's most creative pursuits and demonstrate the parallels between the past and today's design trends.

Design Thinking Introduction & Workshop - NoVA UXJohn Whalen
What's Design Thinking, you ask? Design Thinking is a collaborative, human-centered approach to solving a wide range of complex problems. This one-hour, hands-on workshop will rapidly go through each stage of the design thinking process: understanding user's needs, framing the problem for creative solutions, ideating, prototyping, and testing.
This was a hands-on workshop in Design Thinking, where we'll roll up our sleeves and tackle some design problem-solving in groups.
#Good Morning UX #2 : Grands principes du design thinkingNewflux UX/UI News
Découvrez la méthodologie de design thinking appliquée pour la conception de solutions innovantes. Vous comprendrez les différentes étapes qui constituent cette approche
The concept of jobs to be done provides a lens through which we can understand value creation. The term was made popular by business leader Clayton Christensen in The Innovator’s Solution, the follow-up to his landmark book The Innovator’s Dilemma.
It’s a straightforward principle: people “hire” products and services to get a job done.
For instance, you might hire a new suit to make you look good for a job interview. Or, you hire Facebook to stay in touch with friends on a daily basis. You could also hire a chocolate bar to reward yourself after work. These are all jobs to be done.
Although companies like Strategyn and The Rewired Group have been using the JTBD for many years, the framework has gotten a lot of attention recently. I’ve been fortunate to have worked with JTBD in various contexts in the past, and I included the topic in throughout my new book, Mapping Experiences.

“User Experience. We’ll worry about that once we have a product.” ~ Entrepreneur
NO, DON’T DO IT! Don’t wait! Your user experience work starts day one and helps make your product great through every stage of your company’s development. UX answers: Who is your user? What do they struggle with? How do you know if you're making a solution that works?
User Experience designer and entrepreneur Kate Rutter of LUXr shares her mistakes as well as how experimentation, failure, learning, trying again and learning more, helped her improve and won. You’ll get the whole inside scoop on lessons learned along the way.
Lean & UX are great bedfellows. In this talk, given at GROWtalks Montreal & Toronto in Feb 2013, Kate talks about why, and also, why you should NEVER use the term UX/UI again.

The Leadership Machine: All the Research About Women's Career Advancement Sum...Janice Fraser
Even after 20 years in Silicon Valley, Janice Fraser was baffled by the hundreds of articles and studies that each try to explain why women don't advance into senior leadership at the same rate as men. Drawing upon dozens of these publications, Janice has mapped out the system, in simple boxes and arrows, showing clearly where the leaks are in the leadership pipeline for women, and how we can plug them. Her findings provide a powerful roadmap for men and women who want to do better for themselves and their colleagues. By courageously looking at how people really advance and what holds them back, we can each develop explicit strategies for managing our own careers and understanding how best to support others.

Design a passion project in three hours using Lean Start-up methodsKate Rutter
Inside you there is a secret product idea...some problem you are just itching to solve. Yet it falls prey to that deadly statement: “Someday, when I have more time...”
In this action-packed 180 minutes, UX London participants got their ideas out and into the world. Using Lean Startup principles and these fun and rapid methods, they created a coherent, lo-fi product concept and got peer feedback on it. From identifying the problem it solves for people and understanding the role it plays in customers’ lives to identifying a key metric to indicate traction, they explored the idea in full. They wrapped up with practical, actionable (and simple!) next steps to propel the ideas forward.
I used to think that confidence was like a room that I wanted to be able to walk into anytime. After a deep dive into the psychology of confidence, I know that the opposite is true - when I'm not confident, it's like I'm trapped in an Escape Room challenge, and all I need to do is solve the puzzle. Here's what I learned.

Making Elephants Dance -- How corporates can lean into the future with Lean S...Janice Fraser
The greatest risk to business today is the pace of change, and entrepreneurship is the solution. This talk provides a preview of Eric Ries' Leader's Guide, which provides a framework for implementing Lean Startup throughout a company.
This is the Introduction To Lean Startup that has been presented at the Lean Startup Conference since 2012. It presents the key concepts of Lean Startup in a succinct and memorable way, with a few graphs and charts.
This talk describes a product ownership model practiced by leading software development firms, including Pivotal Labs.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
