Yea, I have to agree with Todd, It sounds more like cultural problems and with execution issues. Of course a closet filled with materials is an issue, and if you are looking at 100's of data points, well then that is a HUGE execution problem anyway for most projects.
Here's my concern with what you are saying Yury. It sounds like you are resonating with what Jim says, b/c you are in pain of what you've seen from the other side. But Jim is being quite specific about the proper context for the methods he uses as well as for the scale and scope of those methods. I feel you are putting "words in his mouth" to his actual disadvantage without much experience with what he's actually done or how's he done it. The work environment you mention (been there, done that, change it) is not uncommon, but also is not a given. 90% of applying UX in tech-centric environments in evangelism and in these environments in particular the real datapoints that are derived from observation of users (pick a method) are even that much more important to maintain, and consider and figure out how to bring along the biz/engineering sides into the process instead of presenting to them from the outside. It sounds like you just have a lot of work to do. -- dave . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
