What our participants say about us

UX Designer, 

e-Commerce

"We had been stuck in a cycle of implementing technical fixes for a recurring customer complaint, only to see the same issues. The human-centric approach taught in the workshop helped our team step back and truly understand the customer's underlying needs."

Product Manager, Financial Institution

"This workshop transformed our product development process from feature-driven to problem-driven. Instead of adding capabilities our developers thought were cool, we started with deep user research to understand actual pain points."
