Description:
Communicating user research findings effectively so that people can understand them, believe them, and know how to act on them can be challenging. You may feel that you’ve delivered a successful presentation, but later you find that the recommendations aren’t acted upon and nothing's changed. Ideally, our clients are as interested in our user research findings and recommendations as we are and find them valuable, but without the proper understanding, clients can express a variety of negative reactions. This presentation will discuss best practices in communicating user research findings to avoid these problems and to lead to better outcomes.
