Content Introduction

To bring good user experience to users, designers need to not only hone their design capabilities, but also be able to influence product decisions and create value for users. How to increase the influence of a designer on a team? In addition to linking day-to-day output to business goals, designers should have the power to, for example, work with senior decision makers to map out the product vision for the next five years to ensure that the product is strategically user-centric.

This workshop is based on the framework of product vision production, touching on multiple dimensions of design influence: decision-makers' managerial competence, business competence, organizational competence, and the ability to speak with data. I will combine specific cases to show the skills needed in each link of the product vision from 0 to 1. Workshop participants will also practice each knowledge point in the process of making the vision.

The main contents of this workshop:
1. Background introduction: The need to design the significance of influence
1.1 Influence: Who is affected and what is our goal?
1.2 Dimensions of influence, positive and negative cases, problem discovery and communication, business thinking, data analysis, workplace emotional intelligence, organization of teammates, etc

2.3 The third step: prioritize user pain points, grasp five major user needs combined with the company's product strategy and propose solutions, verify the solutions proposed in the third step through user research and quantitative testing, and conduct iterative analysis
2.4 Step 4: Design sprint, string the iterative scheme into a user story and make a speech
2.5 Step 5: How to implement the design, prioritize the design with the product manager and plan it into the team development
