Tools to navigate
Stakeholder Interview
Designing complex systems requires understanding the people who will use them. Stakeholder interviews are a powerful tool for this. By talking to key decision-makers, users, and stakeholders, we gained crucial insights into their goals, current experiences, processes, and challenges. The aim is to identify pain points and find ways to nudge them towards making positive changes.
Building Trust
Besides understanding, we also need support from these people. We built long-term relationships by involving them early, from the immersion phase through vision and roadmap planning, and at every key decision point. During the delivery process, we kept them informed with bi-weekly share-out sessions. Transparency is key to building trust.
