Getting approval for a design concept can be difficult especially within larger organisations where there are multiple stakeholders.

In this audioboo I share some of the techniques I have included in my upcoming book “Client Centric Design”. Ideas include:

  • Avoiding personal opinion by asking for specific feedback.
  • Focusing the stakeholder on user needs and business objectives.
  • Using video as a presentation tool.
  • Alternatives to design by committee.
