One Definition of Transparency
Transparency as the opposite of Opacity
      – Opaqueness prevents you from understanding




                           Transparency allows you to see and
                           understand

                           Share that understanding to provide
                           context throughout the product
                           creation process

                                             – Personas’ goals and problems
                                             – “What’s now?” for your customers




 Anticipate Your Market’s Future

Facebook’s Faster Horse
In 2005 Facebook Was Semi-Private

In 2009 People asked for
           detailed Privacy Settings

In 2010 People asked for
           coarse Privacy Settings

People Have What They Want
           … but Not What They Need

Scott Sehlhorst, Tyner Blain (http://tynerblain.com/blog/)   10
Goal Focused Stakeholders
Stakeholders Own The Goals
NOT Implementation
NOT Features
NOT Design




Transparency of Goals + Trust and Delegation

Scott Sehlhorst, Tyner Blain (http://tynerblain.com/blog/)   11
Design Infuses Invention
Design Clarity – Acting Uno Animo
      – “Solve This Problem, With This Approach”

Designer-Inventor
      – Must Understand the Value

Implementation Team
      – Must Understand the Value
      – Must Understand the Design

Great Products Need Both
Great Products Require Both
      – Invention / Design
      – Value
Either Without The Other is Unpleasant

Editor's Notes

  1. An interpretation of transparency that allows us to talk about how communication throughout the product creation process is critical
  2. An automated insulin pump is innovative. A USB-powered rocket launcher is a novelty.The iPod was innovative, but not independently defensible. The economics were not disruptive. But the iPod ecosystem is defensible.Walkmans disappeared. “Carry Around Your Library” was a latent need.Blue & Red OceansDefine a New MarketSlog It OutDefensibility
  3. Attribution for photo at end of presentation“THE” understanding vs. “THAT” understanding
  4. A single genius can’t spend four years on a masterpiece and succeed & sustain in our markets. 500 years ago, Michelangelo was half-way done painting the Sistine Chapel.And you need transparency of those market problems to propagate through the team.Because a single mind is no longer juggling the understanding of the market, the design approach, and the implementation details.
  5. Understanding is not just “today’s snapshot” – also predicting market responses and competitor reactions
  6. Transparency is removing the barriers to understandingMarket & user research gets you dataSynthesis and modeling of data gets you insightsInsights expose opportunities for innovation
  7. The “right” requirements are NOT what people ask for – they are a representation of what people need that causes them to ask for stuff.Cindy Alvarez: “Customers may not be able to articulate what they want, but they can’t hide what they need.”
  8. Transparency = Making sure corporate (and user) goals are understood and acknowledged by stakeholders.Getting stakeholders (beneficiaries, sponsors) to agree – they are delegating design and implementation choices.Stakeholders can either specify or approve “which goals are to be addressed by this product”, but not how the implementation addresses them.When people throw out Steve Jobs as an example – keep in mind that Mr. Jobs is not just CEO, he is senior designer . He’s playing two roles.Customers may ask for a faster horse – and executives may insist that the horse can monitor the loading of the cart. What we have to do is assure that the product manager uncovers the goals (get there faster, assure delivery of goods)We’ll come back to “Sign-off” on designs and implementations
  9. You need both invention and value feeding into your process.Uno animo – latin for “with one mind” : term shamelessly stolen from Frederick Brooks, from The Design of Design.Collaborative design: In parallel, the dreaded “design by committee” – workable in series of sequential & siloed areas of ownershipDesign clarity – when people comment on the elegance of a design, they are not just expressing an affinity for the design, but acknowledging the clarity of the design. A clear and consistent design does not assure a great design – but a design can’t be great without a unifying and consistent core.An added bonus of understanding -
