Seating Chart User Experience – “ Driving in a Model T with a
Ferrari Engine “
“[Those] who are familiar with wildly popular websites such as Amazon and e-Bay will certainly have noticed that no training whatsoever
is required at those sites. Why? Because of a very high degree of usability. I have yet to hear of an Amazon super user network.”

Cut to the Chase with Usability
Slide 9
After 30 years, it’s no longer a matter of if but what.
Refresh, renew, reimagine.
Slide 11
• Innovation no longer = computerization
Last 30 years of innovation defined by the computerization of business
Process and technology led – build it and they will come (do what we need)
• Anything is possible, now what?
The answer isn't in the technology, but what you do with it
Define direction, then define a strategy
• Relax, the software you already own may be a fine.
The UX is pliable – and ripe with opportunity
• Missed opportunities are still there for the taking
Configuration and setup: recall how this was done
It’s not if, but what.
Slide 12
After all, I deployed this system.
I don’t want to upset any apple carts.
Slide 13
• Different types of surgery for different reasons, with
different effects
SAP Screen Personas – think ”Lifestyle Lift”
Enterprise mobile – think “open heart surgery” or “psychotherapy”
Avoid complications: Borrow from reputable sources and contexts.
Go easy - think “homeopathic”
• Diagnosis is the first and most important step
Observe, listen, understand. Don’t react.
Think surgery – not demolition.
Slide 14
Observational inquiry.
Take to the field.
Slide 15
Observational Inquiry
Slide 16
Not what they are doing, but why they are doing it.
Preferred to asking, “What do you want?”
Why?
Slide 17
Not what they are doing, but why they are doing it.
“This is easy…”
Unexpected opportunities
Discoveries
Slide 18
Unexpected Opportunities
Slide 19
Follow the business process
Unexpected Opportunities
Slide 20
Open-plan workplace behavior defeated by system behavior
Unexpected Opportunities
Slide 21
“I never understood what that meant…”
They have the words you need
Slide 22
The trick is getting them.
Do I need to hire a designer?
Slide 23
Slide 24
• Business Analyst : Procedural Truth ©
• Developer : Mechanical Truth©
• Designer : Human Truth©
Don’t have one of these? Consider their focus.
Slide 25
Consider their focus.
Slide 26
• What design is… and isn’t.
Problem Definition – not a taste making
Communication – not a stylist
Model building / solution definition / risk management
• Who is a designer… and who isn’t.
Some say we all have the capacity to be designers
Collaborator, listener, observer
Business analyst… may be too unlikely to challenge assumptions and convention.
Technologist…may be too challenging to shake the limitations of the materials.
Design & Designers
Slide 27
• Who.
A person(s) capable of asking, “Why are we doing this, and how do we know we
should?”
Can appreciate the concerns and challenges of business and technology.
Is ultimately true to the human audience of any strategies or tactics.
Knows the difference between tool and technique.
• What.
Leads application of human-centered thought and practice.
An organization that recognizes the value of design.
• Where.
Within IT? Within the business? In between?
Design Center of Excellence
Slide 28
Driving procedural & technological change
Through the lens of human capital

For immediate consideration.
Slide 40
• The system you own may be the system you need.
• In the UI, technology isn’t the challenge
• Informed modification (large and small) may make all the
difference.
• Business Requirement never equated to User
Requirements. They never will.
• Design holds great promise. Think Human Truth.
• Don’t repeat the past.
For immediate consideration.
