Simon Norris, CEO of Nomensa joins us to chat about UX strategy. We look back over how digital has matured during the last 15 years and how the world today is so utterly different to how we thought it would be back then.
Simon differentiates between micro and macro UX and explains how UX by its nature is strategic but that doesn’t make us all strategists.
Is UX strategy a transitional concept? Should UX-ers code? Can incumbent organisation make the transition to digital thinking? Can UX strategy help organisations think more collectively about business customers and technology?
(Listening time: 35 minutes)
This episode is sponsored by Interact London 2015. Inspiring UX thinkers.

Pamela Pavliscak, founder of Change Sciences, joined us directly off stage at From Business To Buttons after her talk The Science of Happy Design (slides from SXSW). We talk to Pamela about happiness. If you are happy after using a website, you rate it better. You’re more likely to buy from it, use it again, recommend it. Can we create happiness? Can we design it?

A retrospective look back at some concepts that bubbled up last year. Third and finally – Are you a robot? Introducing “No CAPTCHA reCAPTCHA”. Google has moved robot checking to the back end.

Michael Aagaard, optimizer of websites and the decision-making processes and the man behind Content Verve. Named the “Conversion Jesus” by John Ekman from Conversionista. We grabbed Michael directly after his high-octane presentation at Conversion Jam 4 and talked about the need to stop guessing and start hypothesizing. Do your research!
Cat Noone presented “My Grandmother’s books are neatly stored in an app” (which interestingly didn’t really mention her Grandma!). We chatted to her straight after her presentation.

Ingo Johansson was one of the speakers on day one of Intranätverk 2014. We grabbed him during a coffee break to talk about the onboarding process at NNE Pharmaplan which has just gone through a user-centric revamp. We hear how they managed to get HR to think “why” rather than just “what” and how new employees, managers and HR needs are all considered target groups and catered for.
