[post_content] => Clarity on UX research leadership paths is hard to come by. It’s difficult to know what leadership roles entail—the responsibilities, day-to-activities, opportunities, and challenges—until you’re actually in those roles. In this talk, Loi will compare the three primary UX research leadership paths: Individual Contributor, People Manager, and Hybrid. Ultimately, equipping researchers with the knowledge needed to identify the right path for them, and the steps they can take today—at any stage in their career—to build towards these leadership positions.

[post_content] => User research has a problem with race. Although designers create for a diverse, globalized world, their research practices are rooted in racial assumptions that have a long and ugly history. In this talk, Alba Villamil will discuss how taking a “colorblind” approach to research—minimizing the existence of race and racism—helps produce racist design. She will then describe research strategies and tools designers can use to produce more racially equitable work.

[post_content] => The future is more and more being built based on abstractions of people into data and algorithms. How can UX researchers get the job done *and* advocate for users? In this talk, Rachel Ceasar shares ways to slow down and actually listen to users through the lost art of data analysis. Aimed at democratizing the research process for researchers and non-researchers alike, Rachel will provide UXers with concrete steps for better documenting analytical decisions across teams and clients in a way that is transparent, replicable, and rigorous.

[post_content] => Our world is inherently diverse, yet research frequently fails to account for this diversity. Researchers can inadvertently overlook valuable insights and miss opportunities for meaningful inclusion in recruiting and research practices. How can we advocate for inclusivity and representation and identify our own biases, while maintaining methodological rigor? In this talk, Kat Chiluiza will use real-world examples to discuss Do’s and Don'ts when conducting research with diverse audiences. This talk will also share tips on how researchers can have conversations about inclusivity with stakeholders in each stage of research from planning and execution to share outs.

[post_content] => Product organizations are in constant sprint-mode, working to unlock the next best innovation. UXR plays a crucial role in uncovering new opportunities, but our roles will not be easy. The challenges before us are complex and great. How can we enable our research teams to run towards uncertainty and embrace demanding circumstances? In this talk, Emma van Emmerik will share how unlocking grit in your team will enable them to tackle the uncertainties of tomorrow with passion and ingenuity. Drawing on her experience as an endurance athlete, Emma will share the following three key lessons to help you and your team “train for success”: catalyze constant adaptation, embrace pressure as a privilege, and label risks as curiosity so you take them more often.

[post_content] => Many organizations are struggling to make their qualitative research scalable—findings are trapped in decks and the data is not findable or searchable. Co-located and remote work arrangements make collaboration on synthesis difficult. We need a platform to synthesize and organize our qualitative research inputs so that we can collaborate effectively and preserve the data for future use. Setting up a useful research repository requires teams to account for both your organizations’ structure and client segments as well as the goals of the individual studies.

[post_content] => Building maturity in a research practice is hard, especially when your closest colleagues are only just beginning to understand your value. In this talk, Dave Chen and Tino Kapetaneas share their experiences building a research practice from the ground up, and how creating value as researchers doesn’t always mean doing “research”. As most organizational issues are effectively communication issues, researchers have a powerful skill set that can unlock better collaboration for any organization—if only we could position ourselves around those problems and the stakeholders that care about them sooner. You’ll walk away from this talk with a number of tactics from their “credibility playbook” that will help you spot opportunities sooner, build new partnerships, and launch your research practice to greater heights.

[post_content] => Everyone starts somewhere, but our field currently has far more job openings for senior-level researchers than any other career level. So what about the researchers who are still at the start of their career path? In this talk, Srishti Mathur will make the case that early-career researchers should, in fact, have a place in your organization. She will outline effective strategies for managers and senior team members to set early-career researchers on a path for success within any research team. After all, the beginners of today will be the leaders of tomorrow.

Dear Designers…We Need to Talk About Race: How Colorblind User Research Produces Racist Design |
User research has a problem with race. Although designers create for a diverse, globalized world, their research practices are rooted in racial assumptions that have a long and ugly history. In this talk, Alba Villamil will discuss how taking a “colorblind” approach to research—minimizing the existence of race and racism—helps produce racist design. She will… Continue reading Dear Designers…We Need to Talk About Race: How Colorblind User Research Produces Racist Design Read more |

[post_content] => 18% of the world’s population has one or more disabilities. Yet, the perspective of the disabled user rarely makes it into formal user research. In this talk, Sheri Byrne-Haber discusses why accessibility is important, how user research with participants with disabilities is different from user research without disabilities, and how to run a robust UXR program adequately representing the needs of current and future users with disabilities. She will then provide templates for screeners and scripts that can be customized for individualized UXR sessions.

[post_content] => Gary Chapman’s best-selling book, The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love that Lasts, teaches us that relationships thrive when we understand each other and can speak the same “language”. But this isn’t just true for love or friendship—it’s also true in our professional lives. Half the job of a UX researcher is to communicate, and nailing this communication can be the difference between research that has impact and research that doesn’t. In this talk we’ll go over the five love languages, discuss how they relate to our craft, and outline ways we can apply an understanding of them to result in research that wows.

We start with a clear look at how our work is situated in the organization, and what it takes to build long-term impact through research. In this talk, Dave will walk through the core skill areas that researchers and research teams need to succeed in modern organizations, as developed from workshops involving almost 500 research practitioners. We will see how those skills evolve and support each other over time, and gain a new tool to 'map' our professional growth as an evolving system instead of a rigid ladder.
