Online UX Strategy Workshop: May 22, 9 am EDT (UTC - 4)

This 3-hour online workshop presents a framework for designing successful products, services and experiences. It includes live teaching segments and exercises, accompanied by video segments from UX STRAT conferences that illustrate the framework, and describe cases in which strategic design methodologies have been applied in various business contexts. This workshop is a compressed version of a workshop that has been hosted on-site at Netflix, Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, IBM and other top companies in the US, Europe and Asia. Now it comes straight to your office (or living room or cafe or...) via Zoom, taught by Paul Bryan, UX STRAT Organizer, live with Q&A. You will be able to view the workshop recording in the event you aren't able to make the live session.
