Tech First Talk - Session 17- "Before You Click "Buy" 12.18.24
Session Title: Before You Click "Buy"
Session Description: Person-centeredness is at the heart of enabling technology. Whatever the device, app, or gadget, it must help the person get to something they value. Unfortunately, knowing what a person truly values is not always easy. Maybe the least effective way is to just ask someone in a planning meeting. Instead, let's have a meaningful conversation. In this talk, SHIFT’s own Patrick Lane will cover how to successfully have and document discovery conversations so the technology, whatever it is, leads to a better life.
About Patrick: Patrick is the Education Manager with SHIFT.
