uhmm... users are stakeholders

[-] Matumb0@lemmy.world 37 points 11 months ago

And that is, why it is important to know the difference of stake- and shareholders. But it is a great mistake to learn from.

[-] Kichae@lemmy.ca 5 points 11 months ago

If only decision makers would ever recognize the mistake in the first place.

[-] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago

Yeah but they never come to sprint planning so 🤷

[-] dustyData@lemmy.world -1 points 11 months ago

You don't designate a user advocate or at least have a representative of Trust & Safety to advice on development?

Oh, my comment was a joke too, darling. We know that no one on project management cares enough to actually have proper user advocates on the dev team.

I'd prefer a well equipped UX research team tbh. "Advocate" is one of those job titles that screams "my role is poorly defined"

UX and UI aren't magic bullets. They constantly come up with and approve the most anti-user crap. They are just as disconnected from the actual user base as a database engineer.

[-] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

UX and UI design is not the same as a UX research team. Different disciplines entirely.

I think they meant shareholders

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works -1 points 11 months ago

not necessarily. Your "stakeholders" on the deal/contract that interface with product and success managers could all be VPs who never use the product.

[-] andthenthreemore@startrek.website 6 points 11 months ago

No. A stakeholder is anyone with an interest in the project. Where you consider the importance of a particular stakeholder vs another is a different question.

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works -2 points 11 months ago

That doesn't sound like a very helpful or useful definition in day to day operations.

[-] andthenthreemore@startrek.website 1 points 11 months ago

Meh. It is what it is though. That's why you have stakeholder analysis.
