Protecting Our Research from Ourselves: Optimizing Research for Creative and Empathic Decisions

Case Study Conference Speaker
Workshop Instructor
November 4, 2022

By focusing so much on what comes at the end of research: the solution, we get in the way of understanding the problems we are trying to solve.

This class teaches more about developing a mindset of exploration and discovery before getting to solutions. Whether you’re a PM, a Designer, or a Researcher, this class will help you understand how to plan, synthesize, and share research that looks to understand user’s obstacles and leverage those insights to inspire creativity and empathy among your teams.
