EVENT DETAILS
<P>Join us as Lean UX expert & author <STRONG>Jeff Gothelf</STRONG>shares advice from his latest book <EM>Sense & Respond</EM> on how companies can listen to customers & create new products continuously<SPAN>.</SPAN></P>
<P>Youre in the software business. You may not realize it yet but its the only way youre scaling in the 21st century. Whether youre in retail, financial services or health care, no industry is immune. This includes agriculture.</P>
<P>In this rich, detailed case study Jeff will share the story of John Deere. The legendary American farm machine manufacturer, keenly aware & on top of the technological revolution, has built up a surprising Sense & Respond practice to help them innovate their product offerings especially their tractors & combines.</P>
<P>However, Sense & Respond is not just a practice for product & design teams. It has significant management & leadership implications. As the case study will show, despite their deep understanding of customer needs, John Deere struggled to reconcile that feedback with their leadership agenda leading to some fascinating customer practices that left both the farmer & the company in sub-optimal positions. This vivid story will illustrate that even great product & design practices dont always influence corporate agendas while highlighting ways that leadership must engage to build a truly successful Sense & Respond loop.</P>
<P>Join us for dinner, a great talk, & inspiring conversations.</P>
