Selling User Experience (UX)

Join us for our next METRO User Experience (UX) Special Interest Group meeting on Tuesday, February 9th from 10am-12pm.

Those of us who are UX practitioners and evangelists understand its tremendous organizational benefits. However, many organizations either do not understand the role of UX, or marginalize it organizationally, thereby reducing its effectiveness.

Nadaleen F. Tempelman-Klui, head of the User Experience Department at NYU Libraries, will discuss her experience in selling UX to the organization. She will share critical components for success and stories of failure that can be avoided!
Nadaleen shepherded her department from the ground up; please read her blog post about how she got started in UX. Please post your questions in the comments prior to February 9th and she’ll answer them at our February 9th meeting.

Our meeting will also include opportunities to network with colleagues, share UX tips, and get feedback on UX projects. Please email Lisa at lchow23 <at> yahoo.com and Sandra at ssajonas <at> gmail.com if you’re looking to get feedback on your UX projects.
