Forging Alliances with Project Management:A PM’s View of UX |
It is critical for Design and Project Management to be true collaborators in getting things done. This session aims to help UX practitioners advance their careers and be more successful in collaborating with individuals with different motivations and mindsets, and who often speak a different language. The session shares insights on Project Management and offers ways that the UX profession can help business understand the strategic value of Design within the enterprise.
The majority of the world’s enterprises still operate projects in a “traditional” sense. Project Managers are eager to learn more about Design (e.g. managing innovation), but frequently harbor trepidation or misunderstanding of UX and are unsure how to incorporate Design on their projects. Join this session to learn how the strategic partnership between Design and Project Management can evangelize UX as a force for change and innovation and help PMs operate in a more flexible, discovery-driven world. |
