Innovation vs. Best Practice – Conflict or Opportunity?
“Best practice” implies doing things in the best possible manner, based on past experience. But we like to think of ourselves as innovators in a dynamic industry – we want to go where no one has gone before. Thus, “best practice” and “innovation” are like oil and water – they don’t easily mix.
How can we, as UX professionals, balance the need for consistency that “best practice” provides, with our on-going mission to improve the quality of our products? How can we create genuine improvements – and when have we been seduced by the evil twins, Fad and Fashion?
“Innovation vs. Best Practice” explores the elements that make up these two ends of the UX spectrum. We’ll take a closer look at the popular definitions of both innovation and best practice – and discover why these are frequently inadequate, misleading, or both. Why is a “standard” not always a “best practice”? And if “invention” can be spontaneous, why is “innovation” always planned?
We’ll also examine some of the worst reasons to innovate, which are also some of the most common, plus the Japanese concept of “chindogu” – “useless innovation.” Perhaps most important of all, we’ll see how User Driven Design helps us avoid harmful innovation in comparison to the more common User Centered Design methodology.

Building Startups: the "3rd co-founder model"eFounders
Among the myriad of types of structures breeding startups (incubators, accelerators, etc.), a new successful model has emerged: the startup studio. Brand new, this model is already controversial, as show the announced IPO of Rocket Internet. Here is how we see the startup studio model: as being a 3rd co-founder.

Every business should innovate - and innovation does not require coming up with earth-shattering new ideas. Innovation in business can be subtle and measured. Innovation should also be inclusive, meaning that all employees in a company should be able to give ideas on how to improve the business. Restricting innovation to a particular level of management or department is wasting potential resources that you already have - the creativity that lies hidden within your work force.
So get everyone involved and start innovating. If you don't you may just be left behind.

The role of mindset in user centred designZaana Jaclyn
Presented at UXAustralia in Sydney August 28 2014 with Dr Simon Lawry.
Overview
Mindset is something that affects how we approach the methods and tools available to us as practitioners. It affects how we practice and engage as practitioners, with our team members, clients and customers.
While working on a strategic design piece for a large telecommunications provider, we uncovered a startling insight. The insights emerged through a combination of futuring, observational research and cultural probe studies. We worked with customers that represented the client’s mass market and also those we referred to as ‘edge users’ who were professional futurists and trend makers themselves, both locally and internationally. The interesting insight was that there were two predominant mindsets that sat behind people’s expectations and values. We referred to these mindsets as generative and receiving.
People with generative mindsets believe they have a say in creating their desired future. They believe that through their choices and actions, they are deliberately acting in accordance with their vision of the future. People with receiving mindsets believe that they are better served by responding effectively and appropriately to the circumstances that life creates for them. They believe through careful consideration and planning, they can navigate themselves appropriately through murky waters of ambiguity.
After noticing these mindsets in the people we researched, the two mindsets became more and more obvious to us in our day-to-day interactions. We could identify clients who had a generative mindset, and those that had a receiving mindset. We could notice shifts in our own mindsets and noticed the difference in our practice when we returned to a generative mindset. We have realised that the generative mindset forms a fundamental part of a ‘designerly’ way of working.
These mindsets affect how we design workshops, iterate with clients and customers, synthesise and analyse information and ultimately, affects the quality and trajectory of our work.

Understanding design thinking in practice: a qualitative study of design led ...Zaana Jaclyn
PhD dissertation.
Abstract
Design thinking is a collaborative and human centred approach to solving problems. Over the past decade design thinking has evolved considerably, particularly with regard to innovation within the sectors of design and business. Despite this sharp rise to popularity there remains limited understanding of how design thinking is applied in practice and little empirical investigation into this subject. Without this understanding further informed application and development of the approach will be hampered.
The ‘design led professional’ is an individual who uses design approaches in their work practices whose education and experience however may not necessarily be in design. The central aim of this thesis is to understand how the ‘design led professional’ applies design thinking in practice with large organisations where the focus is on designing intangible products such as systems, services and experiences. The thesis addresses the research problem through the exploration of the question: How does the design led professional understand and enact design thinking in practice? This question is explored within the context of the design led professional working with large organisations.
A qualitative research approach was adopted, which involved ethnographic methods of semi structured interviews, artefact analysis and participant observation. Data was collected across three studies: an expert interview study, a retrospective case study and a participatory case study. The constant comparative grounded theory method was used to analyse and synthesise data.
Research findings, contextualised within relevant literature, reveal the composition of design thinking in practice: as constrained by the approach taken in applying design thinking; the maturity of the design led professional and the environment in which design thinking is conducted.
On this basis two models are proposed in the conclusion as a foundation for further application and development. The first presents a scale of design thinking maturity based upon two perspectives of design thinking as a way of work and a way of life. The second model maps the interdependent relationship between the three components of design thinking in practice of the approach, the design led professional and the environment in which it is conducted.
The evidence generated through this research provides a framework to assist the public and those who practice design thinking to better understand and articulate design thinking. In addition it provides a foundation for further empirical research that explores the realistic application of design thinking in practice and the critical role of the design led professional.

System Thinking: Design Tools to Drive Innovation Processes Roberta Tassi
The increasing complexity of the world around us raises new challenges for designers, who are called to build cohesive experiences across broad ecosystems of products and services. Dealing with innovation and highly complex services, involving a large number of actors and many different channels, requires the adoption of new skills and techniques, that enable a more effective collaboration with all the stakeholders involved and support the dialogue around articulated systems and large amount of information.
Looking at the theory, Service Design Tools (www.servicedesigntools.org) is a first comprehensive repository of methods and examples that could orientate a designer - or any other professional - approaching the challenges of designing services, to help identifying the right method according to the step of the process, the type of participants and the kind of information that need to be discussed. Jumping to the practice, the power of adopting a systemic approach and shaping tools and frameworks that can re-order and re-distribute knowledge within multifaceted teams to drive innovation processes has changed the way in which highly complex services are conceived and developed across segments - from healthcare to financial -.
The ambition now is to see this evolving more and more into the way societal problems with large scale impact are addressed - bringing the benefit of system thinking into social innovation processes and organisation changes.

TRANSFORMATION DESIGN is a new approch to organizational change management. It is based on Design Thinking, Collaboration and Gamification. It is prooven and brings great results in your change initiatives. Try it out.
Whether it's for your company or your own professional development (or ideally both), everyone should have a technology roadmap. Unfortunately there is no easy path to pre-made wisdom here, but this talk opines on some ideas and approaches to help formulate a roadmap that is relevant, pragmatic and importantly, able to be communicated to others.

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.

Builder.ai Founder Sachin Dev Duggal's Strategic Approach to Create an Innova...Ramesh Iyer

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).
