Meetup Overview And Benefits
The meetup will start with a talk on personas and the clarity they bring to user stories. The benefits of personas in developing and marketing products that meet users’ needs will be explored in depth.
The talk will highlight good practices to consider when creating personas and also bust some myths around them.
A guide for creating persona will be presented and a practical example will be drawn to illustrate the theory.
Following the talk, the participants will be invited to play a persona game during which they will create personas for a certain product and prioritize the features of that product departing from the needs of the user base.
