Beyond just usability: desirability testing (Susan Mercer)

UXPA International

The way people consume information, interact with digital, and how they live today are a complete 180-degrees from 30 years ago. So, why are we still using traditional research methods like interviews, focus groups, and surveys to extract the what, why, and how from users? Are focus groups really a better methodology? How honest would you be in a room full of strangers for two hours? Obtaining true motivations is not easily done with traditional methods. Emily Chu and Zarla Ludin of Motivate Design will present alternative, innovative methods such as friendship circles, quick hits, act it out, reality checks, and align behavior checks to help researchers more accurately discover user motivations and behaviors. The presenters will ask for volunteers to adopt certain user scenarios and demonstrate some of the research techniques discussed.

The Ethics of UX "White Labeling" (Cory Lebson)

UXPA International

As the world transforms into an increasingly global market UX practitioners need to be able to optimize designs for an international audiences. Your digital reach is no longer limited to your local city, state or country. So how can you start designing for a global audience? How do you deal with a website that delivers content in 116 languages? As I’ve worked for many international companies, I’ve picked up various tips and tricks necessary to avoid those critical issues. Learn from my experiences and avoid the major pitfalls. Attendees will learn about the benefits of planning for an international audience to save time and money; understand international laws, technological infrastructures and constraints; receive practical tools and tips; learn how to evaluate the designs with a global audience and optimize the experience.

How can you tackle the process of updating a mature interface? In this presentation, I will discuss our team’s approach to quickly transform the look and feel of GoToMeeting, GoToWebinar and GoToTraining for Mac over a period of four months. Learn how we kept our project on track by saying no to all but the most essential improvements, and how we incorporated design feedback without falling prey to out-of-scope requirements. I'll explain my design process and how I supported the team in my role as scrum master. You will see visual design changes that were tried and discarded, and most importantly, what impact the visual changes had on our user community. This talk will cover what can realistically be done in a short period of time to improve your interface without overcommitting, and where to go after the first release.

Susan Mercer's talk from the UXPA 2014 Ignite session "Are you a Super Hero or a Super Villain? Using Design Psychology for Good (and Evil)." Design Psychology is a powerful tool to wield and can be used to the benefit or detriment of our users; motivating them to behave in ways that can be in their interest, or our own. Our panel of experienced professionals, each with an interest in different facets of design psychology, will choose a white hat or black hat - some taking the side of good and honest intentions, with others taking the dark side where manipulation and coercion reign. On which side will you fall?

Online screen sharing tools have changed our research toolkit. Now we can conduct research faster and more cost effectively using screen sharing tools and webcams. And then came mobile devices. To see people interact with their smartphones and tablets, we had to be in person. Back on planes! Now it's possible to conduct multi-channel research remotely Cash- and time-strapped clients are hungry for this affordable, fast solution. It's not easy (and it's not right for every project), but you should know how to do it for projects where it's a good fit. In this session, we'll discuss pros and cons of each approach, lessons learned, when remote multi-channel research is a good idea (& when it's not), & hot tips on how to effectively conduct research remotely on mobile devices.

UXPA 2013 Annual Conference July 11, 2013 3:00 - 7:00pm ET by Cindy Lu There has been a long debate about HTML 5 vs Native app. Native apps provide rich interactive experience and performance while Mobile Web can be designed once to run in multiple devices across various platforms. Industry experts predict that through 2014, there will be a long shift to HTML 5 from native apps as HTML 5 becomes more capable. A challenge to designers is to design a better interactive experience while the technology is still evolving. This workshop will bring together UX practitioners to discuss new ideas about designing mobile web applications.

Yaseed Chaumoo's Ignite talk from the UXPA 2014 session "Growth by Design: Managing Change in Experience Design Teams." The demand for experience design services is getting higher every day. As we try to manage the rapid growth of our specialist teams, we're reaching the point at which our evolved team structures can no longer cope with that demand. How do we structure our design teams to focus on quality and sustainability while ensuring our employees are kept highly motivated and have clear career development opportunities? How do we facilitate change and re-define roles to alleviate points of stress and encourage ownership and accountability at all levels? This Ignite session will bring experienced managers and practitioners together to share their insights on how they have achieved this in their own companies, to give attendees specific, actionable advice to help them manage growth in their own experience design teams.

Unlocking the team personality to drive change (Yaseed Chaumoo)

UXPA International

A UX professional has the power to heavily influence the success or failure of an entire business – product, service or otherwise. What we forget is that UX professionals are in fact human. We have the same or similar physical, emotional and experiential habits, outlooks and desires as the users we’re designing for. Humans design for humans. Therefore, it’s important to focus on the human, emotional aspect of our UX teams. Successful design is built not just on our expertise, but our enjoyment in the craft of building itself. By assessing and analyzing the UX designer as an individual versus the UX designer as a part of a team, this talk will explore and suggest uncommon but potentially vital themes in building and retaining creative inspiration inside a UX team.

Better UX Can Start With Motivation and Management

Another day, another web site (or application... or mobile site).... Are you beginning to feel uninspired in your job creating digital interfaces? After several years doing UX, many senior professionals begin to question, "what's next?" This presentation discusses service design as the next opportunity for UX professionals to create great experiences and how the service sector, from bike-sharing to co-working spaces, is a critical driver in the global economy. The presentation will cover the core tenets of motivating behaviors within a service - space, time and perspective - and why UX professionals are perfectly poised to design great services because of their ability to understand these elements. From kiosks and wayfinding to mobile and call centers, UX professionals will be encouraged to disrupt their UX world where being "user-centered" is paramount and motivate them to think bigger about the impact they can have on people's experiences.

UXPA 2013 Annual Conference Thursday July 11, 2013 11:00am - 12:00pm ET by Beverly Freeman Analyzing your competition can be quite informative and motivating. Brands compare themselves based on strategies, market share, and feature sets, but what about the user experience? In this talk, we’ll discuss the unique characteristics of competitive analysis from a UX perspective, ways to think about “the competition” beyond the obvious, and methods for competitive analysis. We’ll also share frameworks for going beyond basic usability comparisons, and common pitfalls to avoid.

Imagine creating experiences for your rookie designers’ first couple years that are rewarding, enriching, and full of learning — without taking all your time or energy to manage. We’ll share techniques any team leader can put into practice using real-life examples from associate programs, apprenticeships, and internships. Topics include onboarding, varied work challenges, developing multiple capabilities, buddy systems, group sharing, guest speakers, time with executives, and mentorship. We’ll also share how to operationalize learning, soft skills like communication and collaboration, setting boundaries, time management, achieving deep work, and more skills we all wish we were explicitly taught early on. We’ll focus on modern-day associate programs, but even if you can’t create a full-fledged program, you’ll leave this session with ideas to use with your fledgling professionals. The benefits go beyond efficiency; it’s a foundation for culture, camaraderie, autonomy, and mastery.

User experience can be drastically elevated by combining data science insights with user-based insights from research. Data analytics on its own can make themes and correlations difficult to explain and to provide accurate recommendations. For example, themes identified via large global surveys and usage data can be better understood with UX insights from focused user research, such as user interviews and/or cognitive walkthroughs. This presentation will highlight the complimentary nature of data science and UX and will focus on the benefits of bringing the two disciplines together. This will be buttressed with practical examples of enterprise projects and applications that combined data and skills from the two disciplines, guidance on how the two disciplines can better work together, and the skills needed to improve as a UX professional when working with data science teams.

Users do not always accurately describe what they mean or feel. There are many reasons for this, ranging from politeness to poor introspection, to lack of sufficient technical vocabulary. Fortunately, UX researchers have tools in their trade to deduce what was really meant. We call this UX Fracking, a mixed methods approach that is optimized for extracting hidden user insights. We will illustrate the dangers of inadequate, superficial research, and how this may lead to outcomes incapable of addressing the users’ core issues. We will explore ways to avoid these pitfalls by leveraging mixed research methods to test hypotheses about the users’ intent and needs. This starts with a thorough understanding of who the user is, their goals, and how they work today, to an approach that combines surveys, interviews, and comment analysis with behavioral observation, and finally, validating the newly discovered user insights with the users themselves.

This session walks through the concept of user roles as an alternative to personas as a means to generate and disseminate user insights for product development teams. We will describe the tools and methods used to create a research database organized by user roles, along with examples and short exercises to help attendees think through user roles within their own context. By the end of the session, attendees should be aware of tools and approaches for: Organizing user research information in a database Disseminating user role information to product and design teams Managing a user roles database as part of a long term UX Research program If you’re ready to ditch personas but don’t know how, this session is for you!

We will present a case study that details our approach for replacing user personas with user roles for a multi-national SAAS company. We will take the audience on a journey that starts with an executive request for personas, travels through the tribulations of realizing personas suck, and concludes with convincing others to accept a new and innovative way to understand the people who use the product. Our key message is that personas lack real value for organizations that already understand the importance of empathizing with users. Building user-centered products requires easily accessible and well organized user insights. We will discuss defining users through a process of stakeholder consultation and content review, and structuring data around Jobs to Be Done and product interactions. We will also discuss the dissemination of user roles in our organization using relational databases, interactive dashboards and online wikis. Spoiler alert, our stakeholders loved user roles!

Agile Methodology refers to software design and development methodologies centered around the idea of iterative design and development, where requirements and concepts evolve through collaboration between self-organizing cross-functional teams. Thus, Agile enables teams to deliver value faster, with greater quality and predictability, and greater aptitude to respond to change. With evolving product features every design sprint, designers & researchers find it difficult to follow the design process. This sometimes leads to designs delivered in haste or sub-par design artifacts which result in UX debt. UX debt is accumulated when design teams take actions or shortcuts to expedite the delivery of a piece of functionality or a project which later needs to be refactored. It is the result of prioritizing speedy delivery of design to the development team over a perfect experience journey. Experience Maps is a great tool to practice UX in Agile as well as manage UX Debt.

I started my current job in March of 2020. Many of us remember something clearly about the month that COVID started to shut things down. I remember being surprised to hear that my new on-site-only job would be starting in my living room over zoom. How do you lead a design team when none of the team members live near each other and creativity is highly collaborative? Taking from over a decade of working in HR software, I knew whatever I did needed to put people first. That what employees love about a job is often deeper than the work, it’s the culture, the relationships and people they work with. It’s the feeling that their work has value, and their contribution matters. In this talk I will walk though some of the rituals and best practices I have learned over the last two years building a remote-first creative team.

As humans, we are biased by design. Our intricate and fascinating brains have developed shortcuts through centuries of human evolution. They reduce an unimaginable load of paralyzing decisions, keep us alive, and help us navigate this complex world. Now, these life saving biases affect how we behave with modern technology. Understanding some of the theories and reasons why these biases exist is the key to unlocking their power. In this workshop we will cover some theories around how the brain works. We will review some of our mental shortcuts, take a look at some common biases, and learn how they affect our users, our research, and our designs. Lastly we will review some advantages of biases, and ways to identify and reduce bias. This workshop is targeted for designers who do their own research, and researchers looking to learn more about removing bias from their studies.

We created a Human-Machine Interface (HMI) for a vehicle feature that provides household-levels of power in electrical outlets for our customers to use at work and play. This case study will reveal: · Our debate of re-using version 1.0’s HMI vs designing a new user interface for the electric vehicle—when to break with consistency and why? · User research we conducted to guide our early design concept. · Paper prototypes we created to support our usability testing of the concept with vehicle owners. · How we solved internal debate over the interaction design in moving from internal combustion vehicles to electric vehicles. * Advice to help you evangelize user-centered design that is also brand-centered for a new product.
