Design Quality
01
Overview
Set and manage quality objectives for more objective design decisions.
Discussing design quality is not easy: when is design good design and when is design good enough? A design manager sets design objectives, and manages creation and execution in such a way that the set objectives are met, not more nor less - the challenge is to not over or under deliver as this can harm performance of your organisation. Some of the topics covered in this module include:
- What are the different dimensions of design quality and how should they be managed?
- How to set objectives for design quality?
- How to discuss and explain design quality in an objective way, with an appropriate distance from content?
- How to manage design creation and execution in such a way that the set objectives are met?
