@Anthony, thanks a lot – great article!
well, i am very amazed to experience how i learn a lot from your article and from all the comments! I am still very new in this area and still learning…so please forgive me if i don’t leave a ‘smart;’ enough comment :)

I am now working for my final project for my master degree in Strategic Product Design in TU Delft in the Netherlands. I thought I am being overly ambitious to bringing UCD into agile development process (as many people told me).

In my opition, currently the UCD approaches are not appealing for business investment as its really being implementing in early stage of development (like R&D), and no one gonna be sure if in the next step the designer or marketers will really take advantages of the result. Despite all challenges as you describe in your article, I believe UCD and agile development somehow can bring a lot of benefit for companies and help bring new innovative product to the market faster. And at the end UCD should become one of strategical platform in business environment, not only in design environment.

Please keep write inspiring articles! it helps more people than you ever expected.

Thank you
@lilisukirman
