Abstract

The persona method is widely used and commonly described both in
scientific literature and in case-based blogs. Most often the descriptions point to
a local context with local user groups and it is difficult to find writings on use
of the method in an international context and in globally distributed teams. This
paper reports from a qualitative study conducted in 2012/13 within 13 Danish
companies and points to how design teams apply several different strategies
when end-users are distributed worldwide. Moreover it shows how the design-
ers value the strength of the method to provide common grounds for the team,
especially for team distributed across countries.
Keywords: personas, scenarios, cross culture, international, design.
