Day 3: User Research User research is the secret sauce behind creating products that people can’t get enough of. It’s all about understanding our users – what they need, how they think, and what makes them tick – so we can design products that truly resonate. Why It Matters: Understanding our users isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s a game-changer. It means smarter decisions, happier users, and a more successful product overall. When we know exactly what our users want and need, we can create experiences that feel like magic. How We Do It: We use a variety of methods to get inside the minds of our users, from surveys and interviews to user testing and field studies. Each method gives us a unique perspective and helps us uncover insights that we wouldn’t have found otherwise. Steps to Success: It’s not enough to just do user research – we have to do it right. That means setting clear goals, choosing the right methods, recruiting the right participants, and analyzing our findings thoroughly. And most importantly, it means using those findings to iterate and improve our product continuously. By putting our users front and center in the design process, we can create products that not only meet their needs but exceed their expectations. Let’s keep listening, keep learning, and keep innovating! #20DaysinPDwithAA #GIT20DaysChallenge

Day 5✓ {🔥20daysinPDwithAA} So I thought about the best way to round up this week's post and I said to myself what better way to do it than appreciate everyone who has supported me😘. So thank you to everyone who pressed the like button, thank you to everyone who commented, thank you to everyone who at least read a few lines if not all ,thank you to the wonderful Queens whose knowledge I've gleaned on for this week's challenge.From Nelly Adegoke to Stella Atuegwu ( Miss Stella has probably memorized my name because I keep tagging her everyday ☺️). So for next week ,out of the benevolence of my heart😌, I decided to give a sneek peak at what I will be sharing. I will share on The types of research, User flows, Journey maps , Information Architecture etc. I will also introduce you to the queens that gave me a ride into that world. After this whole challenge I feel like , my posts when gathered will thrive as a UI/UX handbook 😂. I mean, don't you think I am seriously giving out values? ☺️. I really don't know how to thank Dr. Aanu Gopald for thinking about this lovely gift in form of Africa Agility Foundation, that she has given us. Thank you. 🔥 Product Design #20daysinPDwithAA #GIT20daysChallenge #AfricaAgility #AficanGirlsinTechBootcamp #UIUXTrack #DayFive

Hi LinkedIn community! This is Day-14 of my15-day challenge to share my journey as a recent graduate of Stakeholder Democracy Network (SDN) #WIT first batch as a product designer and brand identity enthusiast. I’m currently taking the Google Foundations of User Experience course on Coursera, and today, I want to share some key insights I’ve learned about design sprints. This method is invaluable for quickly solving design challenges and testing new ideas. Key Takeaways on Design Sprints: ⏱️ Speed: Design sprints accelerate the design process by condensing months of work into just a few days, allowing for rapid prototyping and iteration. 💡 Innovation: This structured approach fosters creativity and innovation, pushing teams to think outside the box and develop unique solutions. 🔄 User-Centric: Design sprints prioritize user feedback, ensuring that the solutions developed are grounded in actual user needs and behaviors. The 5 Phases of a Design Sprint: Understand: Define the problem and establish goals. Gather insights to set the direction. Sketch: Generate a wide range of ideas through sketching. Decide: Narrow down the ideas and select the most promising ones. Prototype: Build a realistic, testable prototype of the chosen solution. Test: Validate the prototype with real users and gather feedback. Following all these processes allows for quick design iterations, enabling us to efficiently move from concept to a validated solution.

Day 9/20 #ProductDesign #20DaysinPDwithAA #GIT20Dayschallenge #GITbootcamp #AfricaAgility #AfricanGirlsinTechBootcamp #GITBootcampCohort7 It's another day of my GIT20dayschallenge in Product Design with #AfricaAgility. I would like to say a big thank you to all my tutors for exposing me to some of the not so pronounced but relevant sides of Product Design. It has not been an easy ride but it has obviously been an eye opening journey. Like we always talk about user journey in Product Design, I would like to say that I have had several pain points too in this journey. It has not been too easy but I actually trust the process that there is great light at the end of the tunnel. Someday, my user journey in this Bootcamp with #Africaagility is an experience I would like to talk about. How I was able to navigate, my journey, my experience, where I find myself now. Like I said earlier, I trust the process to bring out the best in me and also in the digital products I would always work with now and in the future.

🌟 **#TheBeginningWithBasics :) 10th Certification!** Finally achieved a milestone I've been working towards – my 10th certification! 🤩 Recently, I reached out to an ex-colleague for some honest feedback, and her genuine insights were incredibly motivating. It made me realize the areas where I could improve and inspired me to upskill in my profession. Reflecting on my interactions with coworkers, I've come to appreciate those who provide both motivation and constructive criticism. Embracing feedback, even when it's tough to hear, has been crucial in shaping my career journey. Sure, criticism can sometimes feel disheartening, but I've learned to see it as an opportunity for growth. By approaching it with optimism and a willingness to learn, I've been able to harness my inner confidence and power. Remember, it's never too late to learn something new and embrace change. As Heraclitus wisely said, "The only constant in life is change." ✨ **#learningopportunities #uiux #uiuxdeveloper #uxcommunity #Google #FoundationsofUserExperienceDesign #GoogleUXCertification #infopark #infoparkkochi #webdesign #htmldeveloper #stepbystep**
