Lean UX explained: How to make design and research collaborative with the team

Agile is not easy for UX design. It was created to address developers' pains without considering the designers. There are different ways to inject the design process into Scrum, as the Dual Track, but in the end, this creates a small waterfall that stops us from being really Agile. In this episode, we talk about Lean UX, the framework that has helped us to really be Lean and Agile taking into consideration the UX Design process. Lean UX is a combination of Lean Startup, Agile, Design Thinking, and UX Design. It transforms the UX Design process into a fully collaborative one where the whole multi-disciplinary team takes part in the UX Research and defines and co-creates the solutions together. The deliverables and documentation are replaced by communication, common understanding, and collaboration; and instead of focusing on outputs, now the team works based on outcomes. The UX research is embedded inside the team, with the participation of all the team members, building increasing knowledge, understanding, and empathizing our customers. We talk about tools like Proto-personas and weekly interviews. We explain how the UX designer takes the role of a design facilitator, making the design process more collaborative with whiteboards, workshops, Design Studio sessions, or Design Sprints. This process, together with a UI Kit or Design System, allows designers and developers to work simultaneously and in parallel to be really Agile. We invite you to continue the conversation and give us feedback! Twitter: @TwoFacetPodcast Email: twofacetpodcast@gmail.com Hosts: Juncal González , Matt Mikulski Music: Sunlight by Lightblow
