What is ‘Kick Ass Collaboration’?

http://www.aiim.org/What-is-Collaboration

Collaboration relies on openness and

knowledge sharing but also some level of focus and accountability on the part of the business organization.

The basic capabilities of tools like Flickr

reverse the old order of group activity, transforming 'gather, then share' into 'share, then gather'.

Understanding users people

• Personas are user archetypes created to represent a user base. They are a small group of semi-fictional characters created from user research that represent the full extent and natural types of user behaviour.

• Each persona has a set of ‘goals’ which specify what they wish to achieve in using a system.

What are Personas?

Persona Example: David• David is 31 years old.• He supervises a team of customer

service agents.• His goal is to make sure service

standards and KPIs are met by the whole team.

Persona Example: Sally• Sally is 46 years old.• She is a qualified accountant and

has worked for the company for many years.

• The most stressful time for Sally is the end of month reporting.

Persona Example: Brad• Brad is 24 years old.• Brad is a graduate engineer and is

currently on rotation through different departments.

• He hates using email.

• A user journey maps what a persona does when using a system, from beginning to end.

• They give us an understanding of a user’s needs and how they will achieve these.
