Kill me
Last night, I went to a great talk with a funny title by Janice Fraser. Lean UX design is an emerging concept that incorporates high-quality, high-velocity UX design into agile development processes.
“Kill Your Darlings” implores us to not fall in love with our designs — or even assume they’re good — until we’ve properly validated them. Rather, the UX design must go through rapid cycles of prove-improve as you dial-in to what actually works in the real world.
Janice’s presentation is on Slideshare, for the curious. Unfortunately, you won’t get all her great commentary, which is why you should see her speak if you can. Even better, sign up for one of her workshops.
A more team-focused article + presentation is by Tim McCoy at Cooper.com.
