Turning yourself into a human-centered design coach (euroIA 2012)Koen Peters
My talk from EuroIA 2012 in Rome. Turning yourself into a human-centered design coach.
Shifting from traditional design consultancy to design coaching requires new skills. In this talk, we share some tips & tricks and best practices on coaching clients in human-centered design:
* Managing expectations from the start – have a clear understanding on what can be expected from both parties.
* Knowing the coached team (and its organization) well before you start.
* Organizing design trainings at the start of the project – these will also give the coached team an understanding of what is going to happen.
* Finding a good balance between having the people you coach do the actual work, and doing parts of the work yourself. Not all techniques are equal: some are easier to pass on than others.
* Working with example deliverables from other projects and ready-to-use templates, to make it easier for the coached team to put a technique into practice and get good results quickly.
* Building consensus in the team you are coaching, and avoid getting caught into one of the camps in the team.
By sharing some of our experiences, hopefully we can help you become a better design coach.
Quick guide to the Design sprint.
The sprint is a five-day process for answering critical business questions through design, prototyping, and testing ideas with customers. Developed at Google Ventures, it’s a “greatest hits” of business strategy, innovation, behavior science, design thinking, and more — packaged into a battle-tested process that any team can use.

Prepared and facilitated a one-day workshop to introduce new learners to Human-Centered Design. Using IDEO’s Design Kit, the workshop provided a hands-on opportunity for us to guide a group of multidisciplinary participants through a creative approach to problem-solving.
Having run numerous workshops using Human-Centered Design principles, we understand the value that it brings to companies seeking to develop innovative solutions. This facilitator’s workshop allowed us to sharpen our abilities and share the fundamentals of Human-Centered Design to a new audience.
Set includes a collection of creativity tools such as clustering, brainstorming, Osborn’s Checklist, morphology, brainwriting and additional tools to illustrate and support the generation of ideas and innovations.
Creativity tools pursue the generation of ideas which lead to innovations, new concepts and visions and control and improve work and creativity flows. To reach these goals, many different techniques have been developed to achieve most creative and most innovative results.
Enthusiastic about the diversity of recent design thinking approaches, but frustrated that an opportunity to truly establish design thinking as a discipline might be missed, the What Could Be team developed the Design Thinking Canvas as a common first step in planning your design and innovation projects.
In this webinar, David Townson introduces the logic behind the Canvas, acknowledges key influences, explains its structure and gives a quick-start guide on a number of ways to use it.

Avoiding the Heuristic Solution: Moving past functional and correct to joyful...Steven Hoober

Interactive systems can be easily made foolproof and practical, but joy and delight all too often elude the final product. This author of two books on design process and interactive patterns has discovered that strict adherence to these same processes or patterns can result directly in functional, but ultimately boring interactive products. In this discussion, you will learn how to avoid the safe answer, while still embracing proven patterns, best practices and user feedback. You will also discuss how to recognize this problem, the principles to avoid these pitfalls, and how to implement tactics to encourage innovative design for your users, and that works within your organization.
Among Oracle database administrators (DBAs), "Agile" is widely regarded as a dirty word, a synonym for "sloppy programming." But in the most commercially and technically successful projects I've ever worked on, the principles of the Agile Manifesto have defined our work (specifically, the implementation of the Agile Manifesto called Extreme Programming (XP), as explained by Kent Beck). In fact, further than that: the principles of Agile, implemented as XP, have profoundly enriched my entire life—not just professionally, but personally. The contradiction between the typical DBA's perception of "Agile" and my own is, thus, stunning.
This session describes my experiences with Agile values and our implementation of them. I describe the circumstances that have led me to believe passionately that it's XP that will best assure the success of my projects. I describe what has worked for me and why, and I describe what hasn't worked and why.

Setting Course: Design Research to Experience RoadmapJason Ulaszek
Presented by Jason Ulaszek and Brian Winters at Interactions '13 on January 28th, 2013.
Have you ever been enlisted by your company or client to create a consumer “vision” for the evolution of their product or service? As design-thinking principles and activities continue to become centerstage in transforming business models, creating new products and services to meet consumer and market demand, we'll be counted on to leverage our skill to help inform business direction.
So, how do you do it?
Design research is critical. Creating foundational, living documentation about the needs, beliefs and behaviors of your customer is of the utmost importance. And, being able to identify needs, opportunities and the future direction for the business, based on both sound process and analytical thought, will be your keys to short and long-term success.
In this session you'll learn how to turn design research activities into a mental model, identify potential new business opportunities and derive business and experience direction from your newly found consumer insight. And, you'll look like a freakin' rockstar in your company doing it.
My slides from my talk at Agile Austin, March 2013. The talk covered key concepts from the book "Lean UX", written by Jeff Gothelf and me, and available here: www.leanuxbook.com

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.
