Hi Nasir: Good points - but for obvious reasons while the survey is still open I'd ask folks to either give me feedback on the survey itself off-list, or wait until the survey is closed. Cheers, -Scott

A survey (with prizes!) This is probably starting your discussion prematurely, but I have to say that I find the survey slants too much on the organization and not on the designer. Would have liked to have seen factors listed such as "Innefective communication of the design" or "Designer cannot defend ideas well," as you allude to in the introductory blog post for the survey. The fact is that most of the organizational factors listed will always exist, no matter how hard we try to combat them-- the key for our community is to focus on breeding designers that can effectively communicate their designs and to confidently defend them. Maybe you're already on this (you do have 'designer psychology' and 'designer competence' listed as categories after all). Just wanted to get that out there on a soap box, as I've heard too often from junior designers that "These guys just don't get it." Submitted and looking forward to your thoughts and analysis, - Nasir ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
