Focus on NN/g training: UX WORKSHOP

Design and lead goal-oriented group exercises to gain collaboration.

≣ Objective of the training

 

User experience is not a siled practice. To gather knowledge, generate new ideas and design solutions, it is best to bring people together. But even when people come together with the best of intentions, ideas and results don't just happen.

It is often the responsibility of the UX manager to plan group meetings and collaborative exercises that create harmony between diverse opinions and produce innovative solutions. As a facilitator, it is your responsibility to ensure that the time spent in the workshops is as productive as possible for the participants – customers, stakeholders and other team members – while ensuring that you get the information you need. need to move your project forward.
