Prove the impact of UX in your product and remove decision guesswork.

How do we measure the quality of UX? What metrics to use? How to bridge business objectives and UX goals? How to remove bias and guesswork from our design decisions? And how to measure and make a case for the impact of your UX work?

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to define design success, establish team-specific design KPIs, how to track them effectively, and integrate accountability and ownership for these metrics into your design process.

You’ll discover how to translate ambiguous objectives into practical goals, and how to make sense of KPRs, SUS, UMUX-Lite, TPI, KPI trees, feedback scoring, gap analysis, Kano model — and how to choose the right UX research method to get better results.
