As a user experience designer, the focus of your attention in day-to-day projects is probably on typical user-centered design activities: research, design and evaluation.
Other people in the organization are responsible for things like:
- determining the price of your project
- how much time you get for your part
- managing scope
- deciding what goes in each release
- how your design will be different from the competition
- and what design process you will use
In this presentation, I will show which non-design deliverables also affect the user experience and how members of the UX team can (and should) influence them. I plan to show real-world examples of these non-design deliverables, highlighting the elements that we can influence, and give tips on how to make sure you get to play your part, and power up!
