We need…

Why?

@AdamtheIA#evolveUX

What problem are you solving?

…and for whom?

@AdamtheIA#evolveUX

What will be the outcome?

A solution without a context is an abstraction

@AdamtheIA#evolveUX

Begin by looking at the world where the problems live

@AdamtheIA#evolveUX

What to look at

What are people doing?Where are they doing it?

Why are they doing it?How do they feel about it?

THIS is where you find opportunities

How are they doing it??

@AdamtheIA#evolveUX

@AdamtheIA#evolveUX

Quality needs protection. It can’t speak for itself on a spreadsheet tomorrow.

@AdamtheIA#evolveUX

Or else it’s out on the curb

@AdamtheIA#evolveUX

You get 1

Quality is easy to defer and nearly impossible to recover
