Change the standard design process most companies follow to enhance accountability for generating business and customer value, while creating new opportunities for collaboration and innovation.

Apply customer-centric design principles based on the advice of experts from Google, Facebook, The Washington Post, Saks Fifth Avenue, and others, who share how they help their customers with before-and-after examples of their designs.

On the importance of design to online business:
No matter how great a business idea is, or what technology it relies on behind the scenes, a company needs to express itself visually in a way customers will understand in order to be successful. The number of ways to translate an idea into a design is infinite, but which designs will drive customer value? Michael Krypel’s Refining Design for Business answers this key question, showing you how to create engaging and measurable customer experiences.
