What has really worked for me, honestly, is showing off the good that IxD can do, over and over, until people started seeing the light. Eventually people within the company start getting convinced that it's worth it to take the time to do things right. Then a well-designed product eventually makes it to market, and clients say things like "OMG, this is f*ckin' awesome!" (a direct quote, no joke). A feather in the cap later, the rest of the company starts getting the message and gets on the ball.
We're talking about changing perceptions here, which, in my case, took a few years of hard-hitting talks internally and perservering through rejection after rejection. It's most effective to start with small projects, and work your way to bigger ones, so the pain of having an idea ignored is less. - N ________________________________________________________________ *Come to IxDA Interaction08 | Savannah* February 8-10, 2008 in Savannah, GA, USA Register today: http://interaction08.ixda.org/ ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
