UX?
Gull-Wing Doors
UX practitioners would often mistake their complete vision through their
prototype as being - 'all the developer would need'
Unforeseen edge cases can kill final
development
What we did before:
We would design the moving car and then panic about how to change the
tires while it was moving.
We want the result to be this:
Scene from ‘Tucker’
not this:
Scene from ‘Gung Ho’
That won’t be edged-out

New design!
Either the world adopts and changes to your
design
or the world rejects your design and it fails
Find where your design fails...
before the world does.
we need to get over ourselves
Typical Designer
the reality
You’re all equally worthless!
Alone, you’re all equally worthless!
Agile is not a fad
and Design is behind the
curve

Shared commitments, Shared successes, and perhaps most importantly, Shared failures build trust.
Who is the biggest influence on your work?
let’s examine this:
YOU
We must overcome our inflated sense of what
we know
BECOME A UX LEADER FIRST
UX leadership starts with understandingwhat questions to ask in order to understand
what the problems really are
The first step in learning to be a great teammate is to earn your teams’ mutual respect and acceptance.

SERVE THE VISION BYSERVING THE TEAM
The key is to approach each interaction with a servant’s heart. When you truly focus on contributing more than receiving you will have accomplished the goal. Even though this may seem counter-intuitive,
by intensely focusing on the other party’s wants, needs & desires, you’ll learn far more than you ever would by
focusing on your agenda.

One of the common patterns you’ll see in successful agile/UX combinations is having the UX designer embedded with the rest
of the product development team.

Building great stuff is a team effort that’s hard...
and possibly dangerous!
Climb down from your towers and get into the mud with everybody else.
