Why

Why
“They don’t get us”
“We are already in too many meetings”
“So now I will be responsible of making the design?”
“I tune out when they start talking about their part of the process”
“I don’t get paid to do this work”
“I can’t guarantee the quality of my work when I need to deliver 100 things at the same time”
“We have roles for a reason right?
Does everybody need to own the same skills?”

Key take aways
What do we want you to take away from our presentation today?
Look at your team and team structure from the why.
Talented individuals != a successful team.
Incorporate design into your development cycle.
Responsibility of the end product lies with the team.
Responsibility for speci
fi
c steps in the cycle belong to a discipline.
Trust your team members.
Find a language / tool that both design + development understand.
Give proper attention to the OPS cycle.
