A presentation I gave at the UK UXPA (@ukuxpa) #LeanUX event in October 2014 in London.
This talk was a variation of my Rapid Product Design talk. I've added a few reflections on my experiences of trying to implement Lean UX principles in a new organisation. I took inspiration from Bill Scott's Lean UX Anti-Patterns to explain some of the problems we encountered.
The other speakers were:
Adrian Howard (@adrianh) from Quietstars who spoke about Lean Persona: http://www.slideshare.net/adrianh/lean-persona
Andrew Godfrey (@tweet_godfrey) from Foolproof who spoke about adapting a Lean UX process and using Lean UX principles in an agency environment, with clients.

doesn't remove the need to version control, but it takes
the tedious steps out of the picture. I am blown away! “!
