Config last week was packed with amazing sessions. Here are 5 of my favorite quotes and takeaways 👇🏻 🎙️ Pitching Accessibility like a Pro “Designers aren’t as empathetic as we say we are. If we were, our products would be accessible.” - Tregg Frank Tregg challenged us to empathize with our entire user base, as well as our stakeholders and teams, to promote value and adoption of accessibility best practices within our organizations. 🎙️ A new opportunity to make great software “All around you there are things that may feel solved, but could you do it better if you did it differently today? - Henry Modisett Henry called us to view AI not just as an add-on to top off your processes, but as a reset button to reevaluate the foundation of your processes. 🎙️ How pigeons led to emergency room optimizations “Who do we prioritize - the happiness of our supply or doing what’s best for the citizens? We do what’s best for the citizens.” - Zulhilmi Icksan Zulhilmi inspired us to radically design our products, especially government products, for the public good to impact lives. 🎙️ Unlocking opportunities: building your brand with side projects “The value of side projects doesn’t often come immediately, but in the opportunities that it creates and the personal growth that it ignites.” - Matt D. Smith Matt encouraged creatives to pursue passionate side projects for both the foreseen and unforeseen outcomes they lead to. 🎙️ Defining the relationship (between humans and AI) “The future and things we can create [with AI] is still up for grabs. We can think of something perhaps even better than what we’ve seen in media.” - Sam Whitmore, Jason Yuan Sam and Jason gave us hope that thoughtfully designed AI products can preserve and empower our humanity.

Design artifacts and tools such as personas and journey maps are more than just a resource. Whether it’s mapping out ideas, stress-testing your designs, or refining your product until it actually speaks to your users—these tools are indispensable. Instead of just being “part of the process,” think of them as the glue holding everything together: ideas, feedback, iteration.

#FramingEffect People tend to make different choices depending on how options are “presented” in front of them. Which one will you pick? A) 60% Off B) 40% of MRP Another one: A) 10% chances of surviving B) 90% chances of dying If your design is failing to engage or convert users - worth seeing how choices are framed for them. 🙂 If you found this helpful, you may like more such from Codewave #DesignTip #ChoiceArchitecture #UXDesign #ProductDesign #ProductManagement
