Digital Design Professional - 3 Essential Steps to Innovative Digital Solutions
Presented by Kim Lauenroth and Stan Buhne
 
Since the invention of the iPhone, the world has rapidly accelerated towards a more digital future. While we once focused primarily on seeking solutions for unsatisfied needs, increasingly we now shift our focus towards creating digital solutions for emerging needs. Whether our ideas will become as successful as Airbnb, Netflix, and others, depends largely on our ability to design forward-looking and innovative digital solutions that have the potential to change the world. In this webinar, we explore the main drivers and building process for designing innovative digital solutions using three essential steps: scoping, conception and realization/operation. Each step will be illustrated using real examples to demonstrate the different tasks, work products, challenges and opportunities that will drive your design and development activities. 
When you attend this webinar, you will: 
  •  learn how to apply proven concepts from industrial design to your digital product design 
  •  learn how the distinction between solution perspective and system perspective helps to more accurately describe your digital solution.

Enterprise Architecture: From a Business Analyst’s View
Presented by Gina Scmidt, Author, Instructor, Consultant
 
An enterprise architecture defines the structure of an organisation and helps to transform operations, business functions, information, and technology into a more seamless environment. It is about bringing business and technology together.
So how can business analysts effectively solve problems, identify solutions to those problems across business units, and further, know how technology is being best utilised? How can we gain a better understanding of how to best contribute to the initiative, and use that knowledge as a stepping stone to advance our career into a more strategic (rather than tactical) role?
During this hour-long session, you'll learn about:
- The various structures and applications of enterprise architectures and their benefits to various organisations
- How to best communicate and interact with enterprise architecture groups
- Leveraging and contributing to enterprise architectures within the business analyst role
- Applying more strategic thinking for assessing impact across the enterprise.
If you're unable to attend this session, you can still register and we'll send you the recording after the webinar.
