Real World Discovery Research - Emma Boulton at UX Brighton 2018

Have you ever had to do discovery research with no budget and no user researchers? Or is your discovery process limited to stakeholder interviews and competitor research? The market research industry are constantly berated for relying on focus groups but the same criticism could be levelled at the UX industry’s go-to methodology - lab based usability testing. One to one interviews in a lab are a great research methodology to choose when you have a clearly defined solution and are iterating on it. What about when you’re shaping the problem space and defining which user needs to focus on?

In this talk, Emma Boulton shares examples of real world discovery research to inspire you to get out from behind your computer and open up your senses to the real world.
