36 THE NATURAL LIAISON Businesses have always needed people who can bridge the gaps between functional areas. There are those people I call them the natural liaisons who have always existed between camps. They bridge the gulf between groups, enable communication between them, and understand the frustrations they feel. A certain quality often brings them to the role, whatever their job title happens to be. Adam Polansky, Changing Perceptions: Getting The Business To Value User-Centred Design Processes. 36
37 IT TAKES SOFT SKILLS TO Identify people s emotions and aspirations. Communicate the information to product and development. Design solutions that successfully engage emotional needs and aspirations. Kelly Goto, Beyond Usability: Adaptive and Assistive Technology. UXPA 2016 Keynote Address. 37
38 You want evidence? Because I have some. 38
39 My question: What should UX practitioners be learning to be successful? 39
40 COMMUNICATION COLLABORATION JUDGEMENT EMPATHY INFLUENCE INITIATIVE 40
41 COMMUNICATION INFLUENCE Researchers and designers need to work on how they present their research findings and designs in a compelling way that inspires the rest of the team to act on them. - Kit Unger, Director of UX, Smartsheet 41
42 COMMUNICATION INFLUENCE Economy of information. Being understood is more important than using all your big-kid words and buzz-words. All your deliverables need to be usable for your team and stakeholders. - Adam Polansky, UX Strategist, Bottle Rocket Studios 42
43 COMMUNICATION INFLUENCE That 40-page usability study report that you got a 4.0 on at school won't be useful for (or read by) most companies. Your work must always have something that can be acted upon by your client / team. - Rebecca Destello, Senior UX Researcher, Atlas Informatics 43
44 COMMUNICATION INFLUENCE How to influence executives to give you funding for the team / goals. - Wendy McKibben Spies, Director of Engineering Strategy, Microsoft 44
45 COLLABORATION The concept of that's not my job deserves a Batmanslapping-Robin kind of reply. The product's success IS your job. And if that means you need to stay late with the developers, so be it. - John Athayde, VP Design, Cargosense 45
46 46
47 COLLABORATION Dive in to understand the business needs as well as user needs. - Patrick Neeman, whisky aficionado / troublemaker 47
48 JUDGEMENT INITIATIVE That synthesis and analysis are not the same thing, they are actually the opposite of each other. Rigorous analysis (take apart / deconstruct) and synthesis (put back together / reconstruct) methods make or break a good researcher. - Kelly Goto, Principal, Goto Research 48
49 JUDGEMENT INITIATIVE Critical thinking, scaffolding hypotheses and assumptions, interpreting insights. - Ha Phan, Principal Designer, GoPro Critical thinking and the art of taking [criticism]. - Rachel Nabors, web animation expert 49
50 JUDGEMENT INITIATIVE Grit. - Amy Chenault, Experience Architect, IBM 50
51 EMPATHY Learn about the technologies that your designs will be implemented in. You should have a conceptual understanding of HTML, CSS, Javascript, jquery, or whatever technology stack the development team is using. - Anonymous (no not /that/ Anonymous) 51
52 EMPATHY Apply your UX skills (and that famous empathy ) to your coworkers, especially those who are not designers. - Christian Crumlish, Head of Product, 7 Cups 52
53 COMMUNICATION COLLABORATION JUDGEMENT EMPATHY INFLUENCE INITIATIVE No one said learn to write production HTML/CSS and Javascript. Nor did they say learn Sketch or tool X. 53
54 Can Soft Skills Be Taught? 54
55 ARE NATURAL LIAISONS BORN THAT WAY? [Natural liaisons] bridge the gulf between groups, enable communication between them, and understand the frustrations they feel. A certain quality often brings them to the role, whatever their job title happens to be. 55
56 Soft skill interventions work. 56
57 In 1989: 40 fatal commercial aviation accidents. In 2014: 9 accidents. 57
58 BACK IN THE MID-1980 S More than 2/3 of crashes were due to pilot error. Analysis of flight deck recordings from crashes revealed that junior officers often knew something was wrong, but didn t speak up. Commercial pilots were taught that the captain was never to be questioned. 58
59 STARTING AROUND 1990 Pilots were taught new ways of working together that reflected these ideas: Human error is inevitable. The captain is not always right! Junior officers have a duty to speak up if they think something is wrong. Crews should cross-check each other and question each other s assumptions. Crews should debrief and critique after }Soft skills each flight. 59
60 The results speak for themselves. 60
61 These same techniques have also been successfully deployed in medicine. Have you noticed that each caregiver now asks you your name and why you re there? 61
62 How Do We Evolve UX To Focus On Soft Skills? 62
63 IT S (INTER) PERSONAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL 63
64 YOU RE A UX CHANGE AGENT What sub-cultures exist in your organizations? Where are the leverage points? UX Who are the leverage points? 64
