Learn a prioritization framework designed to increase confidence that your team is doing the most impactful research
Course overview
Researchers are being asked to do more with less, so it’s even more important that we’re focused on the most valuable research. So, how do we do that? By working through a prioritization framework designed to help you feel more confident that you’re doing the most impactful work, tied to business objectives.
This is a highly interactive, hands-on course. You'll work independently and with other participants to come away with a completed worksheet where you've prioritized 3 actual research projects.
01
You lead researchers, whether your background is in research or another field, you're a senior IC researcher, or a research ops specialist.
02
You want to have more confidence in the outcomes of your research investment.
03
Teams are doing what you think is the right research but the insights are falling flat
You'll prioritize several real-world projects using the framework, assessing each potential project to determine which studies need to be done and which don’t.
Using a worksheet, you'll prioritize your research projects according to key criteria like Clarity, Risk, and Cost. In addition to the takeaway completed worksheet, working through the framework with peers is attendees' favorite thing about this approach.
You'll determine how to include key stakeholders in the prioritization activity, and create scripts for how to communicate your final prioritization decisions with sensitivity to organizational process and stakeholder feelings.
Without literally writing down the impact of research, we can't articulate the true impact it has had throughout the org. You'll see how simple it can be to track post-research impact in a worksheet.

With 20+ years of experience, I’ve led research teams focused on vision and strategy, brand retention and building, and user experience metrics. I led the research team at NerdWallet from a focus on tactical one-off studies to strategic impact. I established research best practices and teams at Kelley Blue Book and Edmunds. Through the 2000s, I ran a consultancy where I worked with companies like Hulu, Citibank, Belkin, GeoCities, Symantec, and Yahoo!
After 14 years leading teams in-house, I returned to consulting in 2022. I provide UX Research leadership for orgs that want their research function to have maximum impact, but have no internal research leadership that can provide the guidance to get them there.
I've seen teams who use this prioritization framework save weeks in unnecessary research time, see increased partnership with stakeholders, and experience more direct impact from their work.
