About the Authors

Peter Merholz is President and one of the co-founders of Adaptive Path. For more than six years, he has been instrumental in developing the company's world-class consulting, training, and public events. Peter began his work at Adaptive Path with a focus on information architecture, and has since developed expertise in product strategy, user research, and practice development.

Peter's personal blog, http://peterme.com, and his essays for Adaptive Path demonstrate his unique ability to foresee what's coming next in information architecture, organizational change, and product strategy. He has the perhaps dubious distinction of coining the term "blog" in 1999, when blogging was still a nascent genre.

As a design researcher for Adaptive Path, Todd Wilkens has worked on research, strategy, and design projects for a diverse group of clients, from large multi-channel media organizations to Internet startups. He is especially skilled at working with people from different backgrounds to synthesize product, business, technology, and user needs into cohesive strategies and designs.

With academic training in sociology, information science, and computer science, Todd is also well versed in social science theory and a wide-ranging toolkit of research methods from ethnography and interviewing to statistical analysis and eye-tracking. He publishes and speaks regularly on design research and human-centered design.

Brandon Schauer is an experience design director for Adaptive Path. ...
