Event Information

On the surface they appear so different…but in reality, they have a whole lot in common. The philosophies are complimentary and highly supportive of each other.

All that sounds fab… but blending UX and Agile in the real world and making it work is super tough.

But wait! Don’t lose heart! It can be done! Come to this group's First and Inauguration meetup to learn from Jim Williams and Toby Rao! They have some great tricks and tips up their sleeves!

Alright, so the implementation problems may happen but those can be resolved. Starting small, going steady and scaling it in a nice and easy pace is the key. Integrating UCD and Agile methodologies takes the right skills, a good plan and the right people.

Toby and Jim will share great ideas, tips and some proven methods to apply a balanced integration to deliver customer nirvana. The duo will also share some real-life stories on how their teams deliver exactly what their customers need by using the magic of Agile Yin and UX Yang!
