UI Design best practices- What Mangers Need to Know
Do you manage an application, product or website and need to a crash course in the latest usability best practices? Do you have a feeling your user experience is inferior but don’t really know how to prove it? What usability best practices should your application, product or website adhere to?
Topic:
Usability is more than a checklist item or somebody’s opinion. Usability guidelines are real, practical and proven to impact website, product or application user experience. In addition to usability engineering as a standard practice in software and product development, many studies have shown the business value and impact of usability. Having these facts in your back pocket can help you build a better case or better manage the usability perceptions of your team.
Fact: Designer and Developer ‘best practices’ for usability and design are often not grounded in empirical research. This seminar will provide you with proven best practices and help you understand why you should advocate for them.
In this seminar we will review the User Interface (UI) best practices managers need to know about across websites, web applications and product design problems. We will focus on understanding the business valueof GUI (graphical user interface) design improvements with an emphasis on demonstrating how usability has powered Web 2.0 successes over the past five years. We will review the ROI (return on investment) from Rich Internet Application usability efforts.
If you are a manager and or you work closely with senior management and you need a better grasp atusability and UI guidelines, patterns and techniques, this seminar will give you the framework to communicate, influence and lead your team toward a strong user experience.
