What 'Doodlers' and 'Coders' Can Teach Business About Experience Design
If you are a key leader in your business, you might wonder why creatives and developers can be so argumentative about seemingly straightforward feature requests for your site.

It’s time for an intervention!
Come explore an approach for clearly communicating, both internally and to the public users of your site. Learn how to keep your team motivated by thinking in terms of how real humans interact via technology.

Let’s get back to the basics of genuine dialog, and maybe even reminisce about high school.
