The process

If you can't describe what you are doing as a process, you don't know what you're doing.

William Edwards Deming

Page 9: Designing the Unknown - IA Konferenz Berlin 2013

The methodology

Waterfall Agile

Lean

Page 10: Designing the Unknown - IA Konferenz Berlin 2013

What I learned

Lack of consistent frameworks.

Inconsistent processes.

Unbalanced teams.

Page 11: Designing the Unknown - IA Konferenz Berlin 2013

The misconceptions

Speed over quality.

No process.

No documentation.

Delivery over discovery.

Page 12: Designing the Unknown - IA Konferenz Berlin 2013

The barriers

Some resistance to change.

Lack of consensus across and within product teams.

Incomplete understanding of UX.

Page 13: Designing the Unknown - IA Konferenz Berlin 2013

You don’t create a culture. Culture happens. It’s the by-product of consistent behavior.

Jason Fried

Page 14: Designing the Unknown - IA Konferenz Berlin 2013

What we wanted

Consistent design process.

Dialog between people and teams.

Better quality in our work.

You rarely improve an organization as a whole by improving the performance of one of its parts.Russell Ackoff

Designers don’t design anything. Organizations design everything.

What you can do

Interview your team.

Map individual processes and critique them.

Unify the findings and test the results.

Who can do it

Anyone.

Teams of one.

In-house teams.

Agencies with their clients.

Page 32: Designing the Unknown - IA Konferenz Berlin 2013

Why do it?

Because you owe it to yourself and to the people who work with you.

Because you want to know where you stand.

Because you want to be prepared for the future.
