LEAN STARTUP (P. 44-47)
“We thought we should get a gold star just for
listening to our customers. Except our customers
“We thought we should get a gold star just for listening to our
customers. Except still didn’t our customers like the still product….
didn’t like the product….
I had committed the biggest waste of all: building
a product that our customers refused to use.”
UX IS NOT JUST TACTICAL- IT’S ALSO
STRATEGIC & HELPS SOLVE
CUSTOMER-PRODUCT-MARKET FIT.

WHEN?

THE ROLE OF UX
Consider that in a multi-device, integrated physical-digital world of
touch, speech, proximity, ambient sensing, brainwaves &
biometrics, location, eye-tracking and other inputs and triggers…
‣ A system’s “user interface” is not always graphical/visual.
‣ User-initiated action is only one SMALL part of most of today’s
complex digital systems.
That makes UX EVEN MORE essential.

SO HOW DO YOU DO IT?

UX IS…
USER CENTERED DESIGN
AUDIENCE

11
The first requirement for an exemplary
user experience is to meet the exact
needs of the customer, without fuss or
bother.
Don Norman

11
Next comes simplicity and elegance that
produce products that are a joy to own, a
joy to use.
True user experience goes far beyond
giving customers what they say they
want, or providing checklist features.
Don Norman

Who is your
customer?
What’s

BILLION-DOLLAR UX
THE $$$ IS PROOF!

HBR: “THE VALUE OF UX AS A CORPORATE
ASSET IS NO LONGER IN QUESTION”
- January 2013
“…look at the $1 billion price tag paid by Facebook for Instagram, whose primary
asset is not technology, but the best photo sharing UX in the business (and some of
the best UX talent as well).
Look at the recent Apple vs. Samsung judgment: 93% of the damages were related to
design patents that define the iOS user experience.
The growing appreciation of the value of UX is not restricted to consumer-facing tech
companies, like Google with their new focus on unified design or Microsoft Windows 8
with its sleek new “Metro” design language…
Companies like GE and Bloomberg are recruiting leading designers to build UX
capabilities at a corporate level.”
h"p://blogs.hbr.org/2013/01/scaling-‐your-‐ux-‐strategy/

“THE MARKET FOR ENGINEERS IS ALWAYS WHITE-HOT.
BUT FOR DESIGNERS, IT’S HOTTER”
