A couple of quick Google searches reveal just how much of a religion that lean, agile startup and lean UX methods have become. Teams and companies are consistently searching for recipes and prescriptions to "doing agile and lean." Jeff Gothelf, author of Lean UX, will share his points of view on how pragmatism anchored in your organization's unique reality trumps the purity of process doctrine. Jeff's talk will be followed by a moderated Q&A session. Bring your biggest challenges!

About Lean UX workshop

The world of software has become continuous. New delivery capabilities like continuous deployment and integration have enabled channels like app stores and the web to provide us with an unprecedented feedback loop. Every time we launch software we can take advantage of this continuous learning cycle to understand who is using our products and services, what they're doing with them and how we're meeting their expectations and our business goals. Combined with techniques born out of user experience and design, we have an unprecedented opportunity to build products that truly meet customer needs and help our businesses win.

This full day workshop is for designers (UX, visual, content, IA, IxD, etc), developers, product managers, stakeholders and team leaders from any size of organisation who want to learn about how to adopt lean principles into their products.
