No? Me neither! Gen-Z (people born after 1996) are not like you and me. They are using screens on the school playground, while you and I were playing with marbles and skipping ropes. Building products for a generation born with technology at their fingertips is both a blessing and a curse. A curse, because it’s tough to understand what’s going on in their heads. A blessing, because you know that “you are not your user” and you can’t use your childhood as a reference point. The only way to understand them? Proper research. Loren will share the challenges the Flair team has faced when trying to understand and delight a Gen-Z audience, and the solutions they’ve found along the way. Speaker: <A HREF="https://www.linkedin.com/in/loren-godefroy/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Loren Godefroy</A> Loren in numbers: 10+ years as a Graphic Designer, 8 years as an entrepreneur (Industrial design), 2 years in UX/UI design, 1 year at Flair Football, on a mission to create a visually delightful, user-friendly experience for young football players on the app. ---- Talk two: Injecting some lean into legacy led organisations. Let’s explore a simpler way to tackle meaty design problems. Why “just do it, just test it” is a good strategy for complex legacy problems in organisations... Speaker:<A HREF="https://twitter.com/ZG_UX" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer"> Zoe Guiraudon</A> Zoe is currently a Senior UX designer at Foolproof and a UX instructor at General Assembly. Her passion for the design process and the education part of UX helps her to inject collaborative and user-centred design thinking into big organisations like ITV, the BBC or Adobe. ---- Open Mic Session Here is where you put your big, brave pants on and jump on stage. This is a safe and open space for you to speak to your fellow designers. Perhaps you’re looking for feedback, partnership or advice on a project you’re working on or simply have a question. Well, this is your moment to shine! You can ask the group and further the conversations in the social after. Contact designlab@novoda.com if you are interested in speaking, hosting or volunteering.
