Workshop will be in English and topic will be #Design

A unique opportunity to learn from the best. Erika will teach you how to do research as a collaborative, multidisciplinary effort involving your entire team, which is more effective than outsourcing your research.  She’ll cover the most practical approaches for better research done in less time, such as making well-informed decisions to implement in any design, development or business process.

From the people who wrote Just Enough Research, the best yet shortest book on research, from this workshop you will learn very useful insights and a novel way of thinking you can use over and over again.

WHO IS IT FOR?

Ideal for entrepreneurs, designers and marketing specialists, and for anyone who wants to incorporate research into their design, development, or business process in order to make better-informed decisions. The emphasis of this workshop is on qualitative rather than quantitative methods — interviews and observation rather than surveys and analytics. You will walk out with new ideas and practical exercises you can use immediately.

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN IN THIS WORKSHOP?

- Conduct research in any organization, budget, team, or timeframe
- Identify and formulate your key questions (Hint: they’re not the ones you think they are.)
