  1. Having trouble getting started testing your ideas with users?
    Learn how you can take the first step getting your idea in front of users- without developers, without professional designers, and without dedicated user researchers.

  2. Successful product development usually requires running a beta. This means answering such questions as:
    - Who should be included? Who makes best beta candidates for enterprise product?
    - What should be "beta'd" - UI/UX (Can people use it - do they love it)? Technical functional (does it work)? Business value (does it achieve what it is supposed to? Is it worth it)?

    In this session, Jared presents the Kano Model. The Kano Model helps you gauge your users’ expectations. When you approach delight from a perspective of pleasure, flow, and meaning, you can then determine which features meet these objectives.

    The audience asked a bunch of great questions during the live seminar. In this…

  5. • Are you implementing the right business intelligence strategy?
    • Are your product ideas aligned with your business and innovation growth strategies?
