Free ebook on design collaboration
This free e-book from the UXPin team explores how to create a collaborative culture and better plan and kick off design projects.
There’s a fine line that separates design collaboration from design by committee. Too often, design collaboration is misinterpreted as compromising on vision to satisfy everyone’s egos.
Named a top 10 design tool by .net magazine, UXPin instead explains design collaboration as including everyone’s opinions but not bending to everyone’s will. As stated in their new free e-book, true design collaboration requires an open culture of ideas – but the design team must have the final say.
Design Collaboration in the Enterprise: Building the Foundation of Brilliance focuses on exercises and philosophies for teams to plan product design together to prevent nasty last-minute surprises. Given the reality of bureaucracy in large companies, the book tries to remain as practical (instead of idealistic) as possible.
The free ebook includes:
- Tips on working with data for better design, taming the designer ego, interviewing stakeholders, prioritizing features as a team, fun kickoff exercises, and more.
- Examples of design collaboration from companies like Vice, Hubspot, and Amazon.
- A complete look at the collaborative design process from idea to kickoff
