What’s new about LeanUX?

Page 35: Ux for lean startups london

PRESENTED IN LONDON, JULY 2011 [email protected]

Lean User Experience is a principle-

driven process for teams working in

situations of extreme uncertainty. It is

characterized by rituals that predispose

predictable, high-quality, high-velocity

user experience outcomes.

Page 36: Ux for lean startups london

PRESENTED IN LONDON, JULY 2011 [email protected]

1. Design + Prod. Mg. + development = 1 product team

2. Externalize!

3. Goal-Driven and Outcome-Focused

4. Repeatable and routinized

5. FLOW: think/make/check

6. Focus on solving the right problem.

7. Generate many options and decide quickly which to pursue.

8. Recognize hypotheses & validate them.

9. Research with users is the best source of information (& inspiration).

9 PRINCIPLES OF LEAN UX

Page 37: Ux for lean startups london

PRESENTED IN LONDON, JULY 2011 [email protected]

1. Write the test first

2. User quote/need as sprint name

3. Wireframe check

4. Designer/developer pairing

5. UX & Product Mgt participate in standup meetings daily

6. Validation step

7. Retrospective periodically

RITUALS OF LEAN UX

Page 38: Ux for lean startups london

PRESENTED IN LONDON, JULY 2011 [email protected]

In Practice: Write the test first

We believe that people like ______________ have a

need for (or problems doing) ________________.

We will know we have succeeded when

____________________, or ___________________, which

will contribute to ________________.

(customer type)

(need/action/behavior)

(quantitative/measurable outcome) (qualitative/observable outcome)

(KPI)

Page 39: Ux for lean startups london

PRESENTED IN LONDON, JULY 2011 [email protected]

In Practice: Wireframe CheckA stand-up style meeting between designer and developer to resolve problems with a wireframe before development begins.

Well, that thing will take

some work

What here is hard?

• Is this an accurate reflection of the system ?

• What here is hard?

• What alternatives are there?

• Is it worth the effort?
