Process

NDA restrictions prevent me from sharing final screens, but there was much back and forth to create global workflows for products with complex back ends. Special thanks to my product management counterpart and the UX visionaries for their tactical and thoughtful collaboration.

01

Discovery + alignment

User flows, sketches and competitive audits. Daily syncs with leadership.

Collaborators: Architects, Engs, PMs, PDs

02

Review with other product teams

Workshops and crits to pressure test designs. Constant negotiation between ideal and possible.

Collaborators: Devs, PDs, CDs, UX management

03

Refinement + release prioritization

Refinement, prototyping, executive check-ins, and board pitches.

Collaborators: PMs, Sales, Exec leadership

KPIs

These will be some of our success metrics. Stay tuned for real performance data post launch!

Accounts created

Drop off rate

RFPs sent

Lessons learned

Ruthlessly review the back end before involving UX

The majority of churn on this initiative originated from assumptions on SSO and back and forth on feasible improvements. If this was resolved before UX was involved, it would’ve saved over a week of work.

Empathy and candor are underrated

This required multiple sprint teams to pick up an urgent, off roadmap, high lift project during a very busy season. This was a continuous exercise in compromise, which was infinitely easier by curating an environment of respectful transparency.
