One thing that always bugged me about the Agile manifesto was its engineering centric focus. So when I was asked during a workshop to share ideas on how developers and stakeholders could work better with designers and user experience professionals, I jumped at the chance to create my own version.
UX / DESIGN VERSION OF THE AGILE MANIFESTO
We are uncovering better ways of creating the best experiences for our users
by doing it and helping others do it.
WE VALUE:
People over workflow approvals and tools
Usable products over designs and mockups
Quick feedback and creativity over following a plan
THAT IS, WHILE THERE IS VALUE IN THE ITEMS ON THE RIGHT, WE VALUE THE ITEMS ON THE LEFT MORE.
Awesome, right? Well I went a bit further. They made the mistake of asking me to come up with a tip to share during different workshop sessions. And this beautiful set of slides was born.
Here they are in square card format for you to use with your own teams:
