Agenda
1. UX as a strategic differentiator
2. What every CEO is trying to figure out - HOW to make
UX a differentiator
3. Strategies are important, but you need to get work done
- start by defining your UX methodology
4. Key elements to consider when defining your
methodology and how it fits in
– Methods drive the plan - staffing models, tools, training plan, etc.
5. The Three Levels of UX organizational change -
methods, processes, change management
