Time
to Spit
on the Table
Being Functionally Appropriate
by Being Culturally Inappropriate


Dan Willis, Sapient                 IA Summit March 21, 2009
See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbV4KcVu9VQ
“We don’t know who
 discovered water ...




 ... but we know it
    wasn’t a fish.”
            --- Marshall McLuhan
“Hunting Lice by Candlelight” by Andries Both
“The group’s initial
 fixation on statistical
anchors ... was in step
   with the analysis-
  oriented corporate
         norm.”
“One way past this dysfunction
was to give the meeting attendees
 permission to ESCAPE from the
   Hairball of their history ...”
Inappropriate

            Ravee Kurian, Director Business

   line

   a lot like Microsoft Office now
Intermission ... again

              Eric Reiss, CEO, FatDUX Group

 See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUP4Vi-xkWY
Inappropriate deliverables
Existing culture
 ‣ Conditioned to expect slick IA
   documentation
 ‣ Distance between client and
   consultants

Inappropriate tactics
 ‣ Create low-fi materials
 ‣ Involve client in hands-on creation

Results
 ‣ Better project for the consulting
   company

   client
Inappropriate deliverables




              Jared Spool, Founding Principal,
                 User Interface Engineering

 For video see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qD-CCzEh-YM
Inappropriate deliverables
Existing culture
 ‣ Traditional, deep-pocket investors

Inappropriate tactic
 ‣ Use a messy prototype to explain
   functionality

Results
 ‣ Investors became participants
 ‣ Investors had fun
 ‣ Investors gained a deeper
   understanding of the product than with
   traditional materials
WARNING

Audience participation required in 5 slides
Inappropriate tips
‣ Inappropriate doesn’t always
  mean rude
‣ Understand the existing
  culture; gauge the ROI
‣ Get tactile
‣ Get personal
‣ Use the humor, but
  constantly track the
  discomfort in the room
WARNING

Audience participation required in 2 slides
Risks
‣ You may get fired
‣ You may be taken lightly
‣ Being inappropriate takes
  more energy than
  maintaining the status quo
Inappropriate stories, issues, or
          questions?
