the two burger team – cross functional pairing for mvps
DESCRIPTION
Part of the inspiration for lean is to eliminate as much unnecessary work as possible to arrive at a valuable end-product. Methodologies such as Lean UX aim to design the best customer experience in the shortest cycle possible, but how do these approaches apply when it comes to executing and shipping a functional Minimum Viable Product? In this talk, designer Jono Mallanyk and software engineer Ben Burton delve into the hands-on approach they've taken to cross-functional pairing to design and build products quickly and effectively. They'll detail how and when to involve execution in the lean process and tools and techniques they've found useful for developers and designers working together. At Neo Innovation Labs, Jono and Ben have spent the past 12 months pairing as designer and developer, learning from each other, and honing their cross-functional process to arrive at a truly lean approach to software creation.TRANSCRIPT
