Creating and Using Personas in an Agile Development
David Broschinsky, Founder, Usable Patterns, Salt Lake City, UT
Personas are no substitute for talking directly to customers, but what do you do when the customer isn’t there to talk to? Learn how to create a persona that helps you keep the customer in mind while developing your product. Tell user stories with confidence because the information is there to back the story up.
