In the world of design and Design Operations, leaders struggle to create insight into the success level of their design teams so that appropriate resources can be attained.
I describe how to earn a seat at the table by using a Scrum framework to optimize your work, build trust and find a sustainable balance between production tasks and innovation.
I led a workshop at MX Conference on March 30 2016 where I taught participants how to increase their organization's appreciation and respect for the design process.

More research, more frequently: How to sell your stakeholders on researchChris Avore
To lead a successful research practice in your organization, you need access—to customers, staff resources, and the availability to identify patterns surfaced over time. Unfortunately, many content strategists, marketers, and designers find themselves with either ad-hoc or sporadic opportunities to really practice strategic research.
This session won’t focus on methods or approaches to research, or why research is important to build better products. But people new to research or those in mature research teams can both learn new perspectives to making research an organizational priority.
Customer Experience driven services and productsCathy Wang
There are many KPIs to determine the success of a product, and customer experience plays a pivotal part in that. Understanding the customer journey allows companies todevelop new services. Customer experience can be the main driving force in shaping the product and innovating services.
In this session, we take a look at what customer experience means and why focus on it. Understanding the shift in customer behaviour in order to adopt to it. What are the ways and steps to use customer insight in driving better products / services?
This is a condensation of InVisions DesignOps Handbook on https://www.designbetter.co/designops-handbook plus some additionel notes and quotes from podcasts and articles. These slides are put together in order to create a better overview of all the areas and focuses in DesignOps
Design Thinking is gaining traction amongst business people, but unfortunately design doesn't happen by thinking about it. You have to roll up your sleeves and make things. In this workshop for UCLA Anderson, I show MBAs tactical design activities that they can put to work now.

Visualizing Communication Strategy: AIGA Boston 2015Dave Holston
Visualizing Design Strategy Workshop is for designers and design managers at all levels who want to find new ways to spark creativity by engaging clients and audiences on a deeper level. This workshop provides designers with fun activities for solving strategic design problems through visual thinking, drawing, images, words, role playing, mapping, stories and other activities.
Most designers look within themselves to spark creativity and come up with answers. But as some of the world’s most successful design firms have learned finding your next big design solution won’t necessarily come from you. By actively engaging clients and audiences in the design process, designers open themselves up to a world of creative insights, allowing them to create meaningful design experiences, and provide increased value to the people they serve.
What you will learn:
Visualizing Design Strategy Workshop teaches you tools for working through strategic design questions with clients through fun and collaborative activities to help you create great design solutions. You will learn:
• How to identify the real design problem to be solved
• How to get clients to clearly express their goals
• How to work with audiences to gather design insights
• Tools for developing creative ideas
• How to get past client subjectivity
• How to evaluate design success
How you will benefit:
Based on over 100 interviews with designers, researchers and educators, the Visualizing Design Strategy Workshop provides tools and techniques used in design process best practices. By understanding how to integrate the tools and exercises associated with the various phases of the design process, designers are better able to provide their clients with well thought out and strategic design decisions.
Satyam Kantamneni, former Managing Director of UX at Citrix, explains how to grow and nurture your UX team to meet business objectives. Based on 15 years experience across Citrix, Paypal, and other companies.
You'll learn:
- When to hire generalists vs. specialists.
- How to drive business outcomes from day 1.

Beyond the Crystal Ball –The Agile PMO - Heather Fleming and Justin RiservatoAtlassian
Perhaps we've set our project management officers (PMOs) up for failure. Without knowing it, we ask them to predict the future using a one-size-fits-all approach to best practices – and that just doesn't work. There is no magic crystal ball! Learn how an agile PMO can help your organization tackle the right work, at the right time, with the right teams using JIRA.

By Thoughtworks | Reviving the art of software design with Andy Marks and Pam...IngridBuenaventura
Reviving the art of software design
The art of software design is facing a slow and painful death. Our mental muscles needed to produce high quality code with good software design are atrophying through the lack of deliberate practice, time, and less people in the tech industry who value software design skills. It's time to get these muscles back into the mental gym!
In this talk we will explore ways to build and maintain software design skills, suggest tools and exercises to help develop this capability, and provide contrasting answers to the question of where these skills are best applied.
Speakers: Andy Marks and Pam Rucinque, Consultants at Thoughtworks
Andy, originally an itinerant teacher of programming at university, has been writing code professionally since 1996 in Melbourne, Brisbane, San Francisco, Leeds and Singapore. He joined Thoughtworks as a technical lead in 2002, and has deep experience in agile development - becoming one of those dreary functional programming evangelists you dread speaking to at parties. Andy is a frequent speaker at conferences in Australia as well as user groups in Melbourne, even though he does not understand monads… not even a little bit.
Pam is a technologist that has focused most of her career on the development of web-based software. As a consultant she has worked with many teams of different shapes and sizes in a wide range of technologies and architectures. Her main interest is in the intersection between people, systems and technology. When working on any organisation, her biggest effort goes into keeping business and tech teams aligned - it saves a lot of time and effort.
Getting stakeholders to think in customer centric manner is relatively straightforward, yet often yields little in terms of actual change. This requires more than stakeholder support - it requires commitment, trust, and active participation in a process that can be unfamiliar or even frightening in a corporate environment. Workshops provide an opportunity to challenge the worldview of your stakeholders and expose them to the truths of customer behaviour. It’s an opportunity to transform them from supporters to believers by creating an environment where they can experience the magic of a user-centred collaborative process.
Design Studio: The User Experience Practitioner’s Secret WeaponBrilliant Experience
We all want the best , but often other priorities get in the way: “Bob from Marketing wants it to…”, “The developers don’t like that approach...”, “That feature is a ‘nice to have’”.
This slide deck will walk you through a design studio and how it can be a great tool to align product owners, developers and UX teams on an approach that balances user and business needs.
A New Toolbox: Artifact Providence 2013Kevin Sharon
Kevin and Sophie reveal Happy Cog’s design process through their experience building a responsive site from beginning to end, including: kicking off the project, the collaborative design process, and the tools they tweaked along the way. Find out what worked and what they learned. In the end, it should be clear that this is a time for experimentation and finding new approaches for new tasks.
Design System as a Product - Maria Elena Duenias, Esther Butcher
Design systems are a great example where web development and design meet. You can find innumerable resources on the internet, books and conferences on how to build them, and how they are exactly what your organization needs. But, building one requires a lot more than following a recipe. In this talk we are going to discuss how to build a design system as an internal product, and how it evolves to become what the users need.
Designers, Developers and Dogs: Finding the magic balance between product and tech - Charlotte Vorbeck, ShareNow and Sahil Bajaj
How can an agile delivery team become a successful product team? When does collaboration between product and tech succeed and when not? Why do people in some teams inspire each other while others in the same environment don't speak the same language? In this talk we want to share our learnings and experiences from rebuilding an internal tool for customer support at ShareNow. What could have been just another boring rewrite surprisingly became one of our best experiences in collaboration. We will look at how a joint discovery phase helped us to come up with a shared vision, how a better team setup enabled us to do the necessary work, how focusing on the customer kept us aligned during our journey, and also how we built upon existing collaborative techniques to achieve this new level of cooperation and trust.
During this presentation, Ward Coessens, ThoughtWorks' Consultant will share best practice insights from the Daimler partnership, helping the automotive group on their cloud innovation journey.
How to create more business impact with flexible teams - Jan Hegewald, Zalando & Rebekka Beels, Zalando
Usually, Software Engineering teams are organized around a fixed set of components which they develop further and maintain. Such component teams gain a high level of expert knowledge about their services. However, with agile product development, it often is difficult to implement the most important initiatives with such teams. This leads to a situation where the teams do not work on the most relevant business topics but on those for the respective team. At Zalando, we introduced a new model where we shape teams flexibly around business goals to create the highest impact. How we organize these teams and which challenges especially for the software quality need to be addressed, will be explored in this talk.
Amazon’s Culture of Innovation & The Working Backwards session
Working Backwards; leading organisations achieve growth by marrying customer-obsession with a modern technology strategy. Where do you begin? By focusing on the customer.
During this webinar, Amazon will discuss key innovation principles which have been instrumental in their continued success and their Working Backwards approach.
Dual-Track Agile for Discovery & Development - Adriana Katrandzhieva
The talk will focus on one of the ways teams can ensure continuous delivery and design in their projects. The so-called ‘Dual-track’ model shows the parallel tracks of discovery and development throughout the product design and delivery process. These continually feedback into each other informing new hypothesis that can be tested in order to be proven/disproven. This model is not always easy to implement out of the box and so I will share my own experiences in applying it in practice - what worked, what didn't and how the model can be adjusted to fit different teams and organisational environments.
Designing the Developer Experience - Tanja Bach, Jacob Bo Tiedemann
Working with software that some other people have built, is not only daily business for private and business users but also for developers. Just like any other product, a product for developers needs to solve their problems and focus on the right jobs-to-be-done in order to be successfully adopted by the developer community. In this talk, we will explain why the developer experience matters not only to developers but also to the business. We will share our learnings and real-world examples of how we created a developer experience for a cloud infrastructure product and an IoT platform that the developers love.
When we design together - Sabrina Mach, Ammara Gafoor and James Emmott
From three distinct perspectives, this talk will contend that design is an activity undertaken by everyone in a software development team. It occurs throughout the process of delivery — not only at the beginning or the end — and it is a powerful instrument for learning about and adapting to the problems our work seeks to solve, which is a shared responsibility. Making the best use of our multidisciplinary expertise in the activity of design requires forms of collaboration that are too often disrupted by the role-based silos that keep us separated and weaken the valuable contribution our diverse approaches could make to our collective efforts. If you care about accelerating time to market, improving customer experience, or building happy and productive teams, you will want to know why and how it matters that we believe ‘design is in everything that we do’.
Hardware is hard(er): designing for distributed user experiences in IoT - Claire Rowland, www.clairerowland.com
Designing connected devices and hardware-enabled services is significantly more complex than pure software. There are more devices on which code can run, connectivity and data sharing patterns to consider, and often multiple and varied touchpoints for users to interact with. Pulling this all together into a coherent experience involves strong collaboration between design and engineering, and a systems thinking approach to UX. In this talk, we’ll introduce what designers need to know about the tech, what engineers need to know about UX for IoT, and how to facilitate the whole-collaboration needed to create great products.

Find out how to validate hypotheses quickly using feedback that comes from a (large enough) number of actual users interacting with your product. In this talk, we will show you the technical foundations, research techniques and organisational setup that we have used successfully on large-scale products. These will save you development time, enable you to go live with confidence, make decisions based on real behaviour instead of best guesses, and solve the actual problems your users are facing.
As a tech leader at ThoughtWorks, a large part of my job involves recommending practices to our clients so they can build and deliver good quality software faster. In doing so repeatedly for many clients I have created a toolkit that contains practical advice from being on the ground. This is what we do, we know it works. When Julius Caesar entered Rome with his army by crossing the river Rubicon, he did something that couldn’t be undone ever again. In your journey as a leader, avoid mistakes that are difficult to correct later. Here are a set of practices that you want to adopt as soon as possible.
Handling error conditions is a core part of the software we write. However, we often treat it as a second class citizen, obscuring our intent through abuse of null values and exceptions that make our code hard to understand and maintain. In the functional programming community, it is common to use datatypes such as Option, Either or Validated to make our intentions explicit when dealing with errors. We can leverage the compiler to verify that we are handling them instead of hoping for the best at runtime. This results in code that is clearer, without hidden path flows. We’ll show how we have been doing this in Kotlin, with the help of the Arrow library.
Mutation testing in software development surfaced in academia during the 70's and has recently seen a resurgence in popularity as a legitimate tool in your testing arsenal. In this session we review the conventional testing pyramid, modern approaches to testing software and look at how mutation testing can help fill in those blind spots.
The continued adoption of containers for deployments has introduced a new path for security issues. In this talk, we will cover the most common areas of vulnerabilities, the challenges in securing your containers, some good practices to help overcome these issues and how to run container security scanning as part of your deployment pipeline.
Mainframes handle 30 billion business transactions each day and 87% of all credit card transactions*, they are not traditionally associated with flexible, fail-fast development approaches. Can we bring the practices of agile, CI/CD and fully automated deployments to applications running on a mainframe? During our talk, we'll tell you a story about test automation; redefining the smallest testable unit of a program. And we'll discuss our learnings from introducing continuous integration and agile practices to the world of insurance and mainframes.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
