About the session
One of the great things about UX roles is we can get stuck into all kinds of research relatively easily. But our enthusiasm, pragmatism, and impending deadlines can sometimes lead us on to shaky ground, producing results and recommendations which might not always stand up to scrutiny.
In this interactive talk I'll help you reflect on where your research practice might be weakest, and provide strategies for overcoming common obstacles.
This talk will cover some of the common pitfalls of fast-paced research and tactics that can be used to alleviate them. Participants will be able (but not required) to share their own experiences and reflect how they can produce resilient research in a compromised environment.
Themes:
UX Research, Failure, Reflective practice
