Register for “MIX08”, March 5 - 7, 2008!
I'll be appearing on a panel at this year's MIX08 conference keynoted by Steve Ballmer and Guy Kawasaki. The panel I'll be taking part in is titled Designing at the Speed of Light. The conference describes it like this, “Your customer needs a breakthrough design for their new business solution - yesterday. What are the secrets to delivering quality design quickly? Accurate project estimation and process can help but the real answers often come from hard-to-make scope and resource decisions. Hear the varying directions these experts have taken in real world projects. Join in with your thoughts around parameters such as buy vs build, strong integrator or no integrator and more.” Thanks to my company, Sapient for supporting my participation. Register here.
Thanks for those who attended “Capturing Value with the Innovation Scorecard”!
It was a great opportunity to keynote this event. I plan on getting my presentation, Conquering the Tyranny of Best Practices, up and available on this site soon. In today's fast-paced, complex business environment, there is a constant need to innovate effectively. True innovation is about creatively recognizing opportunities to deliver value to customers. Yet all too often, organizations are hindered by an inability to generate sufficiently creative ideas that produce value and solve real world problems. This executive seminar was produced by the IIT Entrepreneurship Program and the Institute of Design.
Thanks for attending DUX07.
DUX was here and is now gone. It was a great experience and thank you to all who attended. Also, thanks to my employer, Sapient, and all of the other companies who graciously sponsored the event.
Thanks for everyone who attended Mastermundo.
Thanks to my fellow presenters, the students of the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague, and fellow design and product development professionals. I had a fantastic experience. I'll be uploading my presentation online when I get a chance to do audio annotations for it (I swear I'll get around to this).
New projects up for review.
I uploaded a couple more projects from my time at the IIT Institute of Design. I would love to post some of my most recent Sapient work but, alas, client confidentiality prevents me from doing so. Until I can, check out the augmented reality project WNDR, some research regarding Building Sustainable Enterprises, and a report on social interactions in World of Warcraft: Too Many Projects, So Little Time.
