“My mission as a UX designer is not necessarily to reduce the complexity of a process, but to reduce the feeling that something is complicated. These two goals may overlap, but they are not the same.”
“To make the complex simple, I start with a simplified version of the complex reality. As soon as this simplified version is understood by everyone, I add the complexity in steps of applicable size to keep it understandable for all parties.”
“In complex cases, my first step is always to understand the true goal. What do you want to achieve and why? When you know that, it becomes easier to set priorities and come up with the right solution.”
“The step to innovate in an IT landscape can be a big one. To keep the complex simple and understandable, good communication is the key. By first asking carefully, the complex becomes a lot simpler and you can find a suitable solution faster. which the customer will enjoy for years to come.”
“From complex to simple? What helps me; make it small, communicate without difficult IT talk and above all keep asking yourself: why do or do they want to do it this way? It works, try it!”
“Thanks to Mendix, I can easily model visually instead of complex programming. By dividing flows into subflows, I can build something complex with just a few simple steps.”
“If I want to be able to explain a complex problem, I use reverse engineering. By asking the right questions and walking all possible routes of an end-user in the opposite direction, I can often immediately identify a cause.”
“Communication, the key to a successful project! As a Project Manager, I inform stakeholders and identify and mitigate potential risks, that’s essential. My mission? Delivered an end product within agreed service frameworks that also exceeds expectations.”
“Making the complex simple starts for me with asking questions. Listening carefully to the answers and asking further questions gives me insight into what is going on. By writing down what I know about the situation I create an overview and understand what the situation is. essence of the story.”
“The challenge is to find the simplest possible solution to a complex problem. In programming, you always do that by discussing it first, making overviews and, if possible, sleeping on it overnight and dividing the problem it into pieces (sub-micro-flows).”
“When I face a complex problem, I talk to the client. By asking specific questions, I divide the problem into sub-areas, or bite-sized chunks. By solving each sub-area separately, without losing sight of the context as a whole, a solution is created that everyone understands.”
“Complex issues can often be made simple by dividing them into smaller, manageable challenges. These more manageable pieces can be worked out one by one, bringing the big solution into view.”
“A lot of issues are part of a higher-level process where the business expects a certain result. It helps me to outline this process so that it becomes clear how each individual part influences the chain.”
“To make a complex thing simple for everyone, clear and understandable communication is super important. I apply this on a daily basis, in everything I do.”
“Life is so much easier when you use low code. That’s why I like to develop on the Mendix platform.”
“Simple is not always easy. By asking questions and listening, I try to understand problems and uncover strengths. This creates insights and room for growth and progress!”
“With Mendix, programming becomes simple, but the challenge remains to program simple. I try to divide complex issues into less and less complex parts. I start building without the noise of ambiguities. Based on a simple yet effective tangible result can be built further!”
“In order to fully understand the customer demand, I ask questions and have a curious look. Then I outline the process and cut it into bite-sized chunks, always with the business and different angles in mind.”
“In my position, I have to deal with various tasks. I keep the overview by dividing the whole, as a large pizza, divided into slices with a different topping on each slice. The individual slices are easy to understand, but as a whole, they form a varied pizza!”
“Marketing in itself is extensive and has many types of specialisation. What helps me is to split all tasks into small pieces. Then, when you put everything back together like a puzzle, you have an overview of the comprehensive strategic field and you can contribute to the business objectives!”
“I know better than anyone what the power of a good first impression is. I therefore have an unwise drive and always enthusiastically take on the challenge to make the complex simple for you.”
“I apply what I learned as an organic chemist in my daily life as a developer. After analysing the complexity of a problem, the synthesis of the fragments will lead to a simple solution.”
“When you find something that at first glance seems complicated and incomprehensible, it can help to break it down into smaller pieces. Bring line and structure to it and follow the rhythm. to be.”
“Domains of applications, system landscapes and processes are sometimes difficult to understand. By speaking to the experts from those domains, I understand how things are connected. The individual parts are then standalone and simple.”
“For me, simplifying complex customer requirements always starts with the preparation of clear User Journeys. By working out these journeys, we establish what the core goals and side issues are, allowing us to tackle the elements that cause the noise.”
“I like to break the complex into small pieces to make it simple!”
“To make the complex simple, I first try to map out which processes there are and how this can be automated in an efficient way, using existing techniques so that the wheel does not have to be reinvented.”
“Finding a solution is easier if you first clearly identify the question behind the question. Measure twice, cut once!”
“Complexity often arises due to a lack of knowledge; if you look deeper, it often turns out to be less complex. If I run into something that I experience as complex, I ask a whole array of questions, trying to take on a different perspective, increasing my knowledge.”
“My aim is to keep everything as simple as possible where possible, unless there is good reason to deviate. Simplicity, applied properly, becomes ultimate elegance.”
“Many IT landscape systems are unnecessarily complex due to the use of outdated technologies. Every day, I am involved in designing solutions that make the business side of the company happy and where IT can have an impact. It provides you with flexibility, a better functioning company and growth opportunities for the company.”
“Complex challenges require simple processes! I make complexity simple by first identifying the desired goal, thereby defining the scope. By making the goal clear for myself, the journey to get there becomes clearer and simpler.”
“I try to shed light on complex issues from different angles. This gives you a better view of the objectives, you can better determine priorities and work together towards solutions.”
