UX coaching done well can motivate the disenchanted and inspire the disconnected. Join Jodine as she shares perspectives from her experience as an ‘outsider’ bringing UX coaching into organizations that have a high demand for UX work but lack the internal expertise. She will also offer some principles for smoothing the coaching journey so that you / your clients can reach a common goal — to give internal teams the experience of engaging directly with customers, and to empower teams to integrate new UX methods into their work with confidence, enthusiasm, and pride.
