Course overview

As part of my Maven course on JTBD Interviewing Skills I teach you the E2E JTBD Research Process that I utilize with my clients covering:
-> Formulating a Hypothesis
-> Planning and Recruitment
-> Creating the Interview Guide (using JTBD interview cards)
-> Conducting Team Interviews (using The Wheel of Progress®)
