Politics and usability
Rolf Molich, Kara Pernice Coyne, Ron Perkins, Deborah J. Mayhew · 2003
In this highly interactive panel we will present and discuss a Usability Business Case for professional self-assessment dealing with the Politics of Usability. A usability business case is a hypothetical but realistic scenario that serves to illustrate points of great importance to usability professionals. Our usability business case will focus on the politics of usability: The fundamental rules that apply when attempting to sell or even evangelize usability in an organization. This panel is particularly important since preliminary tests of our business case with experienced usability professionals shows that the general familiarity with our key points is limited.
