Mastering User Research

1 hr 51 min

Webinar recorded for Arabian UIX group (Feb 2021)

Understanding the importance and power of User Experience Research (UXR) is critical to profiting from UX efforts. Doing UXR under conditions of poor user access, or during the pandemic requires rapid pivoting to move research activities online. UXR does not require enormous amounts of effort or cost. Conducting in-person or remote interviews, diaries or Ethnography online is possible to scale to any size organization with the right skills. Frank covers how to conduct Lean user research and tips for scaling your UXR efforts.
