At the 2024 Global Scrum Gathering in New Orleans, Fadi Stephan presented on integrating UX work on Scrum teams. Below is the abstract of the talk, along with the presentation slides.
Abstract:
Many UX designers struggle to work within a Scrum environment and see Scrum as a framework mainly for programmers. Working in time-boxed Sprints and delivering small pieces iteratively and incrementally might force designers to focus on a single story at a time. This in turn can lead to tunnel vision, losing focus of the big picture and resulting in a fragmented user experience. Come to this presentation to learn where design fits in Scrum and how to apply design principles in Agile environments and work effectively with Scrum teams to produce a great user experience.
