Starting with people to build

an experience strategy
An experience strategy identifies the most important,
holistic experience for both a business and a
customer. That identification process involves much
more than sending out a survey or conducting an
interview.
You need to spend time with people in their
context, in the places where they live and work, to
observe, to build authentic relationships and to
uncover the real truths that shed light on
understanding a customer's journey with a company.

Building Empathy
Rolling out new software is hard in any
company, but it’s even harder when your
employees still send faxes.

“What’s important to remember is that customer journeys
aren’t created; they’re discovered. When we try to create
journeys, we fall into one of these two traps: we either
hallucinate customer needs or throw away the customer
experience playbook altogether and focus on the needs we
know intimately: our own.”

Customer experience (CX) professionals know that the first step on
the path to delivering good experiences is doing research to
understand their customers. Yet many fail to recognize that it’s easy
to draw false conclusions — and that doing so is even more
dangerous than being ignorant. In this report, we warn teams
about the most common pitfalls and explain how to adapt your
practices and mindset to avoid them — and get the insights you
need to succeed.

A contextual inquiry is a cross between an
interview and an observation that combines the
strengths of both.
In a contextual inquiry, the interviewer goes to the
user and interviews them where they perform the
activities being investigated. The idea is to
interview users in the context of their lives while
they are performing their tasks, asking them
questions about what they are doing and why
(when necessary) along the way.

Journey Maps are meant to clarify customer
understanding at various points along a
continuum. The purpose of the Journey Map is to
identify high and low points for the user within
the experience. High points being portions of the
flow that are working well and are enjoyable for
the user and low points being areas where the
experience is difficult or frustrating.
A Journey Map will help prioritize UX design
efforts by identifying areas that have the greatest
opportunity for improvement.

Prototypes
Focused Innovation
Once we have identified the concepts that
we want to validate with users we design and
build high-fidelity prototypes. The final
prototype can be used for validation studies
and is also effective for communicating a
concept to internal stakeholders and
prospective customers.
Kano Study
The Kano Model was developed by Japanese
Quality Management expert Noriaki Kano -
and with this method - testing allows for
user input to determine where each feature,
or proposed feature, fits in the model by
weighing the results of a functional question
and a dysfunctional question. Plotting the
responses on a matrix and calculating their
functional and dysfunctional characteristics
leads to recommendations for which
features should be prioritized according to
users needs, satisfaction, and the relative
ratio of effort for each feature in question.
Focused Innovation
Validation Testing
Focused Innovation
The goal of validation testing is to identify
any usability problems, collect qualitative
and quantitative data, and determine the
user's satisfaction with the product. By
identifying problems with usability testing
early in the design phase, fixes will be less
expensive

A findings and recommendations report is
created after observing users in the
testing facility .

PRINCIPLES
WHAT ARE DESIGN PRINCIPLES?
Experience principles are guidelines for solving
a challenge in dependent of a specific solution.
These principles translate our findings into
design directives based on an understanding 

of the design space and the users.
WHY KEY DESIGN PRINCIPLES?
These principles outline what is necessary to
achieve success, giving designers and
implementers a framework in which to generate
solutions that align with employee needs and
motivations and to serve as guideposts at
decision points.

REAL TIME UPDATES
With multiple employees working in the system on multiple
devices, in order to maintain consistency the system needs to
update in real time between devices. For example a customer
pays off a loan and takes in a large amount of money, the
system the manager is on in the back room needs to reflect
that immediately in order for them to make decisions with up to
date information.

Usability Test Iterative Validation
You have a solution already launched, and you’re
looking for areas that could use improvements.
Testing with actual users in a 1-1 setting with task
based scenarios you’ll capture many of the key issues.
A non-functional prototype is validated with limited
work behind it - to make sure we’re heading in the
right direction early in the process. And WAY before
development starts to build. This is also done in a 1-1
setting, but changes are made on the fly.

This is a problem. Just because you
hire someone, doesn’t mean they’re
going to be good. You might have to
push them in the right direction. If
you’re a product owner a well
placed… “don’t you think we should

about what that would take to do
some research, and hopefully get

Are you validating your experiments before sending
a full development team to build?
If not, you’re missing out on half the value of
modern product development.
PROVIDE SUPPORT
AND COVER-FIRE
• Office politics
• New shiny objects (NSO)
• Unproductive requests
• Keeping leaders informed
• Promoting wins
Don’t take no. Try different avenues. Show how
something could be improved.
PUSH, AND PUSH SOME MORE
Why is it like this? What happens if I break this rule?
Have we changed? Is it time to rethink this?
DON’T TAKE PROCESSES AT FACE VALUE
Learn the art of being liked, but getting things done.
Those are not always in conflict, but sometimes they are.
SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO BE A
BIT OF AN ASS
Prove yourself, then prove yourself again. Show with
your own passion, lead.
LEAD

THINGS DONE.

That identification process involves much more than sending out a survey or conducting an interview.

Kano Study The Kano Model was developed by Japanese Quality Management expert Noriaki Kano - and with this method - testing allows for user input to determine where each feature, or proposed feature, fits in the model by weighing the results of a functional question and a dysfunctional question.
