10 Enemies of UX Lee Duddell NUX Leeds
I got enemies, got a lot of enemies Got a lot of people tryna drain me of my energy They tryna take the wave from a UXer Lees got ways to help the Uxer Drake (ob Nielsen)
Enemy 10 is AB Testing
AB Testing UX insight Tells you very little Wastes your time on what you think matters
1 Where is there a problem? 2 Why is it a problem?3 Whats the best fix?
Great for UXers To prove the ROI of testing Hunch-lead experiments vs Testing-lead experiments
Enemy 9 are Design Agencies
NUX Leeds: Enemies of UX
Checklist Office Dog? Too large? Number of Researchers?
Enemy 8 is doing it all
Low hanging fruit Build an internal case study Evidence based change Do it for free (+ your time)
Enemy 7 is asking users
Ask what users can answer What were you trying to do? Could you do it? Then turn those into journeys you observe in a usability test.
1 On-site survey: What were you trying to do? Could you do it? 2 Why not?3 Whats the best fix?
Enemy 6 are Labs
Why? Too remote (WTF?) Infrequent Hammer to crack a nut The problem is Uxers sometimes only use Labs for everything. Storing up questions, they never answer.
Enemy 5 are res re-platform re-design re-fresh re-imagine
Big fashion brand
NUX Leeds: Enemies of UX
Rarely user centred Tech or design or SLT lead Too big Everything gets put off to the re- thing Often lead to conversion drop At least test during. Ideally research before.
Enemy 4 are Focus Groups
Enemy 3 are UXers Us
Or to be precise That we are passionate and believe That our colleagues arent That we dont SCARE them into action
Say scary things like this Conversions/sales could drop off a cliff if we dont sense check with users, just like happened with M&S. I dont want us to lose any customers because of a simple design issue that were not picking up because were so close to it.
Dont say things like I need budget to run some usability tests until you have built up, and discussed the potential risks with budget holders not its not our target market.
What others do you encounter? #1.. #2.. #3 How we sell #4 Focus Groups #5 The re-something #6 Labs #7 Asking users #8 Doing it all #9 Agencies #10 AB Testing
Bonus enemy! Uxers who dont attend the NUX conference!
