Related Blog post: http://www.mangrove.com/blog/1170/ux-design-is-team-work ------------------- A lot of people in the UX field struggle with the transition from waterfall to an Agile/team process. Because we were doing very well, right? We had a complete workflow set-up. We had this great list of deliverables. This old play-an-department thing was absolutely brilliant for the UX discipline. Everybody seemed to be happy with us. Well. We thought. Because I actually think that our old UX design workflow was one of the MAIN reasons we switched from waterfall to an agile process. A lot of our "deliverables", whether they were wireframes, flows or specs, implied that we could grasp the whole product in advance. The results gave security, to our clients, sales persons, developers and others. In this presentation I dive deeper in the background and our lessons learned so far.

Jared Spool

"The biggest irony of the shift to Agile is that it's exactly what the UX world has been

seeking for years. Yet now that it's here, we're wholly unprepared for it."

Jared Spool (again)

"Yet because we couldn't have fast development iterations, we filled up our toolbox with techniques to deliver fully-

thought-out designs to the implementors. This left little wiggle room. And we got good at it."
