How to make your product awesome building a community aroundAlessio Fattorini
With my talk I’d like to explain what I learned building a community from scratch to around 1,5k users: how to handle open discussions, make the right choices, nurture ambassadors, be welcoming, inclusive and supportive. Ready-to-use, concrete advice on what works and what doesn’t.

People Over Process: Turning Assumptions into Shared Understandingmjovel
Every project is based on a number of assumptions. Assumptions about our users and assumptions that our team has a shared vision of what we are building and why we are building it. The longer we hold onto these assumptions, the greater we increase the risk of not meeting our users needs and ultimately, our project fails.
This talk will be about how we ensure we are meeting our users needs. In addition to learning project workflow, we will cover specific techniques that you can use to ensure that the user is at the center of our design and that you create a shared understanding among your team.
Cutting past the bullshit and designing for the userHi Interactive
The document discusses common myths about designing for users and argues that truly understanding users is essential for product success. It debunks myths such as experts not needing to test designs, UX being just one step, and thinking you know your users. Instead, iterative testing with real users, integrating UX throughout development, and understanding limitations help ensure products meet user needs. Examples show failures like Betamax that ignored users and successes like Apple that designed for users. The conclusion is that cutting out assumptions to focus directly on users is key to a product's long-term success.
AUGMENTING CREATIVITY USING GEN AI FOR DESIGN & INNOVATION | TOJIN T. EAPENTojin Eapen, PhD
Presentation slides from my September 2023 guest lecture on Generative AI and its impact on creativity. The lecture also highlights the key themes of my recent July/August 2023 Harvard Business Review (HBR) cover article, exploring the potential of Generative AI to enhance human creativity.
