How To Measure UX and Design Impact

How do we measure the quality of UX? What metrics to use? How to bridge business objectives and UX goals? How to remove bias and guesswork from our design decisions? And how to make a case for the impact of your UX work? Well, let’s figure it out, in the upcoming brand-new session with Vitaly Friedman. You’ll learn how to define design success, establish team-specific design KPIs, how to track them effectively, and integrate accountability and ownership for these metrics into your design process. You’ll discover how to translate ambiguous objectives into practical goals, and how to make sense of KPRs, SUS, UMUX-Lite, TPI, KPI trees, feedback scoring, gap analysis, Kano model — and how to choose the right UX research method to get better results. Roll up your sleeves and let’s dive in!

After working as a freelance designer and developer for 6 years, he co-founded Smashing Magazine back in 2006, a leading online magazine for designers and developers. His curiosity drove him from interface design to front-end to performance optimization to accessibility and back to user experience over all the years.

Indistractable: How to Control Your Attention & Choose Your Life

You sit down at your desk to work on an important project, but a notification on your phone interrupts your morning. Later, as you’re about to get back to work, a colleague taps you on the shoulder to chat. At home, screens get in the way of quality time with your family. Another day goes by, and once again, your most important personal and professional goals are put on hold. What would be possible if you followed through on your best intentions? What could you accomplish if you could stay focused and overcome distractions? What if you had the power to become “indistractable?” In Indistractable, Eyal reveals the hidden psychology driving us to distraction. He describes why solving the problem is not as simple as swearing off our devices: Abstinence is impractical and often makes us want more. Eyal lays bare the secret of finally doing what you say you will do with a four-step, research-backed model. Indistractable reveals the key to getting the best out of technology, without letting it get the best of us.

Using UX Research Outcomes Effectively

The session will focus on making UX Research outcomes actionable. First, we'll define the problem and talk about the reasons why ux research projects usually fail in this last step. We will then talk about the three tactical principles and finish with the 1 strategic principle: "UX Research is a product and the researcher is its PM". We will touch upon many use cases and best practices along the way.
