The document discusses principles for UX design, including collaboration across teams, prioritizing delivery over perfection, allowing flexibility in the design process, and emphasizing experimentation over expertise. Key aspects are testing hypotheses rather than finished designs, showing designs to users, and designing solutions that meet user needs at specific points in time. Collaboration, delivery, and experimentation are presented as important strategies.

Case study & afternoon keynote presented at the Mobile + Web Developer Conference in San Francisco, 2015. http://mobilewebdevconference.com/san-francisco-july-2015/agenda/day-two/300pm.html "Innovate or die” is the mantra of successful companies. So how can we build innovation into our product development process? More and more teams are adopting lean startup techniques to discover customer needs, focus on building what is valuable, and ultimately deliver great products. This talk will share how a small education technology startup I worked with in NY scaled from a handful of people to multiple products and teams across 3 countries using lean startup practices. At various stages of growth we faced different challenges in keeping our processes lean, but throughout the journey we tried, failed and learned how to move fast and innovate. Learn hands-on tools & techniques for applying lean that any team can start small and quickly see results, such as: * How to move faster using collaborative, cross-functional teams * Lightweight dev tools for scaling design across many teams * Building a lean mindset in larger organizations With real examples and artifacts you will learn how to manage - and thrive - using lean to create awesome products.

Nico Perez + Founders Institute talk: Product & Services Development

I was the guest speaker at SVPMA (Sept 3, 2014) and discussed how Product Managers play a profound role in creating the environment around product development teams. I explored various ways they can influence these products to move up from mediocrity and how to avoid micromanagement and “flavor of the month” feature ideas. I discussed specific ways to set clear goals and establish the right metrics. Dipping into my eBay days, I shared a little known story of the importance of asking for forgiveness rather than permission in driving innovation (eBay iPhone app). Some other takeaways from this talk include: How to focus on the right, few, customer adoption metrics (e.g. AAARR). More is often not better and can distract from the main goal How defining your product’s purpose often improves working relationships with designers and engineers so you aren’t left arguing about the “what” or the “how How to avoid getting in the executive micromanagement web especially if they are distracted by the “flavor of the month” or “pet feature” ideas How to drive stealth projects or go through quick business case or product prototyping within a big company The event was held at the Comcast Silicon Valley Innovation Center where I work.

What is service design?

In software there are two key types of work - discovery and delivery. However, that doesn't mean there are different people doing those jobs. If the whole team is responsible for product success, not just getting things built, then the whole team needs to understand and contribute to both kinds of work. Dual track agile and the UXDX model both convey the approach of design and development working together.

Let’s say you’re hosting a dinner party. You've got a few sous chefs in the kitchen helping you prepare the meal. They're chopping vegetables, measuring ingredients, and doing their part to make the meal a success. But what if your chefs talked to your guests before the party to find out what they liked and wanted to eat? Equipped with these insights, your team could make more-informed culinary decisions, leading to an even more incredible guest experience. Similarly, engineers can benefit from engaging directly with customers during the discovery process. But how do you get to a state where your engineers are completely bought in and where your product and engineering teams are working collaboratively to create value from the discovery process?

What makes websites a strong channel for the company? Is it the visuals or what it does for its customers? As success is increasingly fought at the experience level, can design help you build websites that people truly value? And if so, how? This presentation is about good design discovery by way of effective User Experience research. It's a set of methods you can mix and match to truly understand who you're designing for, according to what the medium is and what your business needs. If you've ever wondered how to conduct good UX research or what's going on in that designer's mind (again), look no further. Presented at DrupalNorth Regional Summit (August 2018)

Test Driven Product: Applying Test Driven Thinking to the Product World

Cprime

Sander Haaksma / Marcel Maas This lecture discusses various methods to improve the user experience of the application (or any other product). Proper UX design is specific for each project. The same goes for the project setup. There is no “One size fits all” here. However for each project size and duration there are some steps that need to be taken. In this lecture we will discuss these steps. Which are absolutely necessary for which type and size of project and which can you skip? How does a UX designer fit into an agile project and how can you involve the end-user in the project for input. These are all topics that will be discussed. At the end of the lecture you should have a better understanding as to how UX fits in your next project. Whether you are the Manager, developer or the designer.

MYOB hasn't been known for its usability and design. In the past 12 months, a UX team has been growing, and their influence on product design and development is continually growing. As User Experience designers and managers of a UX team, getting buy-in from your stakeholders and peers is awesome - especially when you're all new to the company. But what happens when you've increased the interest and buy-in so much that it turns into a monster to manage? You could double the size or your team, or you could do what we're doing - educating the rest of the company about good design and user experience and letting go of the reins a little. Scary? Yes. Learn how we're doing things at MYOB and the exponential change we are seeing in the company culture.

User Centred Design (UCD) and Agile Development are two of the most exciting and productive Methods to achieve high quality appication both desired by the customers and loved by the users. UCD and Agile Development are though often said to be impossible to combine and that despite their great advantages any attempt would most certainly lead to disaster. This talk picks up the main points of both methods, shows the key issues and tries to offer a pragmatic approach on how to successfully combine User Centered Design and Agile Development.

University of Illinois WebCon 2016 Rapid prototyping allows you to quickly test out ideas, discover the duds and build up the winners, efficiently steering towards the best solutions. However, creating prototypes rapidly is often easier said than done. This talk will advance the discussion beyond simply high-fidelity or low-fidelity to a more nuanced understanding of prototype complexity. We'll explore how fine tuning each of the six dimensions of fidelity can significantly reduce the amount of effort needed to accomplish your prototypes goals. I will share real world examples of how this approach has helped to hone building prototypes on a fast-paced agile development team. In this presentation you'll learn: How prototyping can fit into your design process How to identify and focus your prototyping goals How to select the right level of fidelity to achieve those goals

Design systems help us design consistent, joined up experiences across different products and platforms. With many designers working across a company, how do you easily share your design system so they’re each working with the latest version and not duplicating work? This session is a case study aiming to give an overview of how we have used our design system, Honeycomb. Most talks on design systems focus on building a web toolkit, or library, with a bunch of developer ready components. But I want to show how we have created a number of resources for designers to speed up how they create designs before they hand over to developers. We have used tools such as Sketch and Brand AI to build a library of components, which makes it really easy to create and change mockups. We typically use these mockups to test designs with end users before building.

SharePoint Fest Chicago 2013 - Can designers and developers work together to create a frictionless solution? Often times barriers exist between designers and developers. Let's look at what UX really is, not hearsay and learn some interesting ways devs can help. And bring peace to this historical battle field, by showing the two factions can work together amicably when supported by a well-defined process. Content covered will center around web, desktop, mobile, and yes a little bit of SharePoint. Discussion topics will include a brief history of user experience (UX) design, a "concept to deliverable" process involving designers and developers, and finally a short demo highlighting covered concepts.
