“”…Its terrible to say this, but its not always about the user…. Opps – did I just say that?… or perhaps more precisely it is all about the user and sometimes taking a pragmatic approach to crafting the overall best result for the user is best served by releasing a solid app on time, to budget and then focusing on iterating the application in future (something that is more possible when you get the trust and respects of the people who actually fund future projects)..
Your ability to manage relationships and conflicting agendas during the project will directly reflect on your future chances to drive continuous improvement of the application post delivery. So choose your battles wisely and remember it’s the war your trying to win.
