What is Lean UX? Insights on its Principles
Meaning • It’s a combination of Lean Startup & Agile Development • It means the practice of bringing together a product to light faster, in a collaborative, cross-functional way. • As in Scrum practice, we work in the continuous feedback loop of iterations via customers feedback at the end of every sprint review cycle. • Ultimately it will helps to build a product design organization that is more collaborative, more cross-functional, and a better fit for today’s Agile reality.
Principles of Lean UX • Team Organisation • Cross-functional team • Small, dedicated & collocated • Self-sufficient & empowered • Problem-focused team B. Guide Culture • Moving from doubt to certainty • Outcomes, not output • Removing waste • Shared understanding • No rock stars, gurus, or ninjas • Permission to fail
A. Team Organisation1. Cross-functional team • Its Similar to Agile Methodology • It’s a combination of different roles to create your products like developers, managers, designers, content writers, marketing, QA, and many more, who make up a part of LEAN UX teams. • Basically, it’s collaboration & continuous involvement or communication between each other and this goes on from day one of the project until the end of the engagement.
Purpose • To avoid pit holes in the process. • LEAN UX & Agile will help the team to share information informally, which creates collaboration earlier in the process & drives higher team efficiency. • For Example, Projects passes in way like Project Manager Design Team Developer Team QA Final Out Come (Without any feedback iteration or market analysis) Eventually,project outcomes will differ from what a customer or end-user actually needs.
A. Team Organisation 2. Small, dedicated & collocated • Small team – Maximum 10 members. • All dedicated to only one project • Working at same location
Benefits • Communication • Focus - keeps team members focused on the same priorities all the time and eliminates dependencies on other teams • Camaraderie • Help the team track status, changes, and new learning • allows the relationship to grow among team members
A. Team Organisation 3. Self-sufficient & empowered • No external dependencies • Give all the capabilities or freedom to operate to your team • Give enough tools to create and release software/products • Give openness & courage to them to figure out how to solve the problems
Result • Increases efficiency, freedom & learning curve amplifies • Team can interact with customers directly in order to get the freedom they need to create effective solutions.
A. Team Organisation 4. Problem focused team • Team has been given a problem related to business, rather than a set of features to create, which is also one of the core values of the Agile manifesto and LEAN UX
Benefits • We can unleash potential of team for problem-solving by giving them actual business problems. • Team will interact with each other and come up with better MVP solutions for the product • Helpful for the team to stay on the same page and be aware of the project status and feature
B. Guide Culture1. Moving from doubt to certainty • In Lean UX everything is assumption until we prove it • We gain clarity as we work • Sometimes assumptions are easy to spot and sometimes its very difficult and cost a lot of time and efforts on bad assumptions. • In conclusion, by validating assumptions we can make complex software development process a bit easy.
B. Guide Culture2. Outcomes matters, not output • Outputs – Features & Services • Main goal – To achieve outcome • Outcome – Create a meaningful and measurable change in customer behavior. • Lean UX is trying to achieve this outcome and measures its progress.
B. Guide Culture3. Removing waste • Main principle of Lean Manufacturing • It removes anything that does not contribute to goal. • Value creation and waste removal technique can help the team to keep their laser focus where it belongs.
B. Guide Culture4. Shared Understanding • It builds over time as the team works together • it reduces the team’s dependencies on second-hand reports and detailed documents to continue its work.
B. Guide Culture5. No Rock starts, Gurus or Ninjas • It emphasise on equal contribution in team • No Stars or star performers • Lean UX seeks team cohesion and collaboration
B. Guide Culture5. Permission to Fail • Allows new ideas to get the solution. • And that’s ok if it fails • So team has a healthy environment to experiment with their ideas.
Conclusion • It is favourable for any organisation to adopt this Lean UX techniques. • It will give fruitful results and give the best solutions for not only the team but the business problem as well.
