Democratizing Research
The need for organizations to make more user-centered decisions, means that research is less mission critical than making sure company-wide insights are gathered. Our panelists will discuss what productive, responsible, and effective research democratization looks like today including how: - Cross-functional teams can apply research - Researchers can facilitate insights between users, product and marketing teams to be more effective - Undemocratising research, is the time vs value delivered worth it to the organization?
Data & Design: Understanding The Relationship To Measure Design Quality
Measuring design experience and design quality is not easy, but as design's role becomes more blended with technology and business results, the tactical ability to build design's database of measurability is crucial. Here, I would like to present practical, data-based frameworks that provide a differentiation in measuring subjective versus objective aspects of user experience at scale. Design leaders must prepare for the next frontier of maturity in scaling design teams, and data is part of that adventure.
