"I needed the same rigour and discipline to approach Kasasa’s discovery phase, but without a full-time research team." Find out how Kasasa used Optimal Workshop's Reframer tool to rebuild a product, prove that value of UX and inspire their team in our case study.

Creating gorgeous websites and apps are something many designers aspire to achieve, but if no one is clicking the “buy” buttons, you’ve got a problem. Step into the users shoes, test, iterate, test again, and you will deliver a better overall experience for the user. #uxtips #ui #ux #uxdesign #uxmastery #designforpeople #uxforlife #userexperience #uxtips #uxlearning
UX Tip: In the heat of battle it often seems easier and quicker to just do something yourself, rather than wait for the junior to do it. In the long run, it's much more valuable to be patient and spend time showing the newbie how to do it. This ensures the load is shared and everyone is learning.

When you think about design as a tool to serve people, it takes on a whole new purpose. One that is wholly useful and has lasting effects. #uxmastery #designforpeople #uxdesign #ui #ux #userexperience #uxquotes #morethanart #designforpeople
Tomorrow we've got a live panel Ask the UXperts with Simon Pemberton and Marissa Mills at 6pm PDT (Thurs 11am AEST). If we believe design school graduates must enter industry with the best possible preparation, then we as the incumbent industry practitioners have an obligation to help them. This is an essential priority because of the rapidly evolving nature of the design industry and the careers that design students will inherit and drive forward. The seeds of their careers are nurtured in certain directions during high school, but as an industry, we have little control over the quality of people influencing this. What we can control however, is the quality of design-based information available and the experiences our future designers have access to as they discover their interests and aptitudes. We’re going to unpack these ideas with Simon and Marissa in our discussion. Link in bio for more information. #uxmastery #uxeducation #ux #education
