Personas at a first sight seem just a simple deliverable, but in reality whey are a tool that can be easily misunderstood, leading to the usual “I’ve tried using personas but it didn’t work”.

Personas are a form of synthesis and as such they lead as much value as much we can embed them in the existing discussions, design and development.

We are also going to see a real case scenario: the WordPress.com personas work, currently in progress.
