The reality across
many organizations is that managing geographically dispersed individuals on a

inherent challenges of managing an effective and cohesive virtual team, as well
as highlight many of the benefits which can be achieved using the virtual team
management techniques that are currently used by IAG to manage our teams of
consultants and client engagements across North America.
Participants will
come away from this webinar with practical methods they can apply in their
environment to help them communicate with, track progress on and improve
results from the remote individuals and teams they manage.

·
Assessing the team and environment
·
Preparing for virtual communication and team management
·
Facilitation techniques for running virtual meetings
·

Hands on Session:
Identifying user Needs and Deriving User Requirements
Presented by Thomas Geis, UXQB
In his earlier webinar sessions, Thomas Geis presented the
methodology for identifying user needs within information about the „context of
use“ (users, their tasks, the resources they use, the environment(s) they are
in). The focus of this webinar is walking through real examples and see how the
process of „finding the gold nuggets in the top soil works in practice. Thomas
will briefly recap the methodology and explicitly walk through several concise
real-world examples of interview data and analyze them on the spot for user
needs and derivable user requirements.
What you will take away from this webinar:
·
How to extract user needs systematically from any piece of
contextual information
·
How to compose user needs based on a pre-defined solid
syntax rule
·
How to derive user requirements related to usability and
user experience
·
How to avoid „solutioning“ too early and facilitate
breakthrough innovation
