Alt text: Free 5-day Intensive December 7-11, Game-Changing Experience Visions. Plant Your UX Flag and Lead Your Organization to Success

Get the organizational change you crave

Do you crave a long-lasting design direction for your organization?
Or does your leadership chase short-term shiny objects that reprioritize the minute something better comes along?

Do you crave to contribute your expertise and knowledge to key strategic decisions?
Or does your team get pushed to the end of the production process with no time to do their best work?

Do you crave using great UX design to drive market-winning innovation?
Or does your organization chase your competitors with poorly-thought-through features that no customer may ever use?

Lead your organization to success

Great experiences can put your organization on the map.

Think of the businesses that every other business wants to be.

Apple. Disney. Tesla. Netflix. Starbucks.

These businesses lead through great user experiences. Your organization can lead through great user experience too.

You need to lead that change.

Plant your organization’s UX flag

These great businesses have the same thing in common: A vision.

Not just any vision. A vision of what a great experience looks like.

A clear experience vision for everyone in the organization to see.

The experience vision acts like a giant flag that everyone in the organization can clearly see. Everyone gets excited seeing where the flag is. That’s where they want to be.

They want to march toward the flag. They want to make the experience vision their reality.

You can create that vision. You can create the experience everyone wants.

You can plant your UX flag and lead your organization to success.

Create Game-Changing Experience Visions

Over 5 intense days, you’ll get everything you need to create your own experience vision. You’ll learn the secrets successful businesses use to unearth ground-breaking innovation. You’ll master how to gain support from your organization’s top leadership. And, you’ll put this all into a solid plan that you can execute right away.

During our newest intensive, Jared will show you a proven approach to creating game-changing experience visions that will spark your organization and drive investment in better user experiences.

Be the visionary your organization needs, literally

Start with the end in mind. Show your peers, stakeholders, and leadership what great design can do for your users, customers, and organization. Demonstrate how true innovation comes by delivering better value.

Craft a clear plan on what your team needs to envision and communicate to your leadership to surface UX value.
Transform great UX from a “nice-to-have” luxury to an organization-wide objective.
Identify OKRs to show progress towards substantially improving your designs.

5 comprehensive days to craft an experience vision

If you don’t know where you’re going…

…You can’t tell how to make decisions to get you closer to your destination.

…You can’t set priorities to overcome the most critical hurdles.

…You can’t know how you’re to guide others to join the effort.

…You can’t see what major milestones you need to reach along the way.

Your organization needs a vision to know where it’s going. This is hard work. That’s why we’ve dedicated an entire week to work with you to make it happen.

Each day, we’ll cover a critical component of creating game-changing experience visions. Jared will walk you through the key concepts, show how to identify the most compelling stories, and reveal tips and techniques to ensure your success.

Monday: Experience Visions: Lead Org Change Through Great UX
– Drive innovation by telling compelling stories that energize the entire organization.

Roll up your sleeves: This is a working Intensive

Warning: There will be work to do. This isn’t a set of videos you can half pay attention to while you do something else. You’ll need to put in the work if you want to see the results.

We’ll combine small amounts of lecture with large amounts of interactive Q&As, exercises, and critiques. Jared will give you direction all along the way.

There will be homework. Bring your team and do it together. Use the Implementation Sessions to get invaluable feedback directly from Jared.

Every day, we introduce a new topic at the Live Discussion

This is the main event for each day. Jared will guide you in a deep exploration of how to craft your game-changing experience vision strategically. You’ll immediately apply the work to your current situation, as you start thinking of the stories you want to tell.
