Tell stories to
bring the vision alive

Paint a memorable picture of positive outcomes to encourage empathy and help the team understand the vision

My team used the video above to show ADP executives and the market how our new experience helps:

  • employees easily get answers to pay-related questions, and

  • customers reduce costs to respond to pay questions and improve their employee’s workplace experience


Reduce risk with lean experiments

  • Align on a hypothesis and the vision

  • Validate experience with lowest fidelity artifacts

  • Iterate and increase fidelity incrementally

  • Validate and repeat

Frame the problem to drive the right outcomes

  • Identify key business and users goals

  • Clarify required outcomes

  • Leverage previous insights

  • Align on the “why” and “how”

Design the conversation

The experience is the conversation between the system and the user. I guide teams to first understand that conversation and the user’s language, then use those insights to inform the design.
