Struggling with inconsistent content across your organization? Then give heuristics a try. These well-defined “rules of thumb” can hold the key to standardized content at scale.

Matt will describe how he’s used heuristics, or content standards, to show the rigor of content design, and to demonstrate strong rationale for his decisions when presenting to leadership. He’ll then explore how heuristics can be used to build content models for design components — key ingredients for generating quality content.

In this session, you’ll learn:

• How to leverage heuristics to move your organization’s content from ad-hoc and disjointed to standardized and quality.
• How short, usable standards can help teams and leadership get aligned on content goals.
• Steps to translate heuristics into content models for components like empty states and tooltips.
