Discovery starts here! La parte del proceso que nadie te enseña

Discovery starts here! La parte del proceso que nadie te enseña

Wed, May 27, 4:30 PM
From Business Insights Tech Talks

**Discovery starts here! La parte del proceso que nadie te enseña** ¿Qué pasa cuando el equipo deja de caber en una mesa? Cuando ya no basta con mirarse a la cara para saber por dónde va cada uno. Cuando lo informal deja de escalar y hay que inventar una forma nueva de empezar las cosas. Esta es la historia de cómo Agustina Segura, Senior Product Manager en Total Energies y Jessica Siruno, Product Designer de Business Insights, aprendieron a trabajar juntas en ese momento exacto: el del Discovery. Cuatro versiones, muchos tropiezos y algunas conversaciones que cambiaron la forma en que entendemos nuestro trabajo. Hablaremos de lo que se rompe cuando un equipo crece, de las decisiones que se toman en pasillos paralelos, y de cómo aprendimos a hacer visible lo que antes dábamos por hecho. Pero sobre todo, hablaremos de personas — de las que diseñan, de las que planifican, de las que desarrollan — y de cómo encontrar una forma común de empezar. Una charla sobre lo que pasa antes de que pase algo. Y sobre por qué casi siempre se nos olvida prepararlo. Al terminar, habrá tiempo para debatir y hacer networking con unos refrigerios en la terraza de Aticco Verdaguer! Agenda: 18;30 - 19:10 - Charla B! talks: Discovery starts here! 19:10- 20:00 - Networking con cervezas en la terraza Reserva tu plaza: https://bit.ly/42ZcihU
