Workshop – Earliest Testable / Workable / Loveable Product

Together with my skilled colleague Dominik Oślizło we're running a workshop on a UXDX 2018 – Main Conference in Dublin, on 4th October 2018 – https://uxdxconf.com/etwlp

Validate your Product as you Build It

With that big Product Vision in your head, you can get the feeling that you have nothing until you have everything - so there is a long path before you get there. And then - the hesitation comes to you head: is it something people will fancy? But worry not, there are a number of ways in which you can test your ideas even at early stages to check their feasibility, optimise them and ultimately: strategise the development of Product or feature.

The topics we will tackle during this session regard some practical approaches and practices you can use whenever you work with either Product or feature ideas that Users would love. 

  • Thinking post-MVP - the multifarious nature of viability and why we need a shift
  • Main risks to consider when planning a feature or Product
  • The importance of The Right Team
  • Why is it crucial to have a Product Mission & Vision
  • How to check the coherence of your Ideas
  • Small steps to prepare for a giant leap - how to validate your ideas at early stages
  • The value of strategising the development
  • Learning from Users and Progressive Enhancement

Hotjar – Case Study

After months of hard work on optimising our company’s website, an effort paid off. We’ve managed to decrease the bounce rate by 50% and lift other conversion ratios over expected estimations. Moreover, I’ve been honored by publication and features on Hotjar website. What a lovely touch!

What I learnt from Revolut, Minecraft, Dice, iZettle, Zendesk and Asos

During the intensive UX tour (I have visited Stockholm, Copenhagen, and London in just 3 days), I’ve had the chance to discuss my thesis with the wider UX professionals community. But the UXDX events gave me something more valuable than just the means to satisfy the narcissistic part of my soul. It has offered me a unique opportunity to discuss daily UX battles with the top minds from the digital industry. And this time I would like to tip my hat to them. Hence the list of what I have heard and learned during my May tour on UXDX.
