class: an ideation technique for lean ux in the enterprise--presentation for uxpa austin
DESCRIPTION
An ideation technique for translating a business strategy into product requirements. The technique is based on nearly 20 years of refinement based on use within 50 different companies and 100's of projects across retail, travel, manufacturing, pharma, and high tech. This presentation focuses on a technique that can be used by any organization regardless of their software development process. If the organization is trying to move to lean or agile, then this technique can be used to jump start the first presentation. This technique is also practical. In the ideal world, you can start from a green field of exploring user needs and different product hypothesis. In the real world, your product has a defined strategy and mandate on what should happen by when.TRANSCRIPT
