Growth leaders and teams are expected to bring impactful results at high speed. However, in that high-paced environment, it's easy to get into a trap of constant local optimization. 👉 What is good for USER is good for BUSINESS. The biggest changes that drove product Growth for companies like Miro, Notion, Figma didn't happen due to local changes. These products combined both components: high-quality user experience and ethical PLG strategies. 📌 Growth teams face many challenges like: — Getting caught in a trap of local optimization and constant A/B testing with no impact?— How do we uncover new growth opportunities to impact Activation, Habit-forming, and Upgrades?— What behavioral principles can help create the most user-friendly and ethical solutions?— Finally, how do we receive a buy-in to implement meaningful product changes and drive Product-led Growth? I've been facing these challenges myself and collecting knowledge for years to address them. 📌 What prepared me to share this knowledge with you: 1.&nbsp;For 6+ years at Miro, I covered all parts of the Growth funnel holistically&nbsp;(Activation, Engagement, Monetisation, Community-led Growth).2. As a part of Growth Leadership at Miro, scaled from 1 Growth team (5 people) to a stream of 15 teams (170+ people).3. As a founder of Growthmates, collected knowledge directly from 20+ leaders from Notion, Canva, Dropbox, and4. As a Growth advisor, helped 10+ B2B and B2C companies in SaaS, Collaboration, Education, AI, and other sectors. 📌 What to expect on this course: ✦ Take an end-to-end look at 3 key Growth flows: Activation, Habit-forming, Upgrades ✦ Apply Behavioural science methods and uncover new opportunities through a user-centric approach ✦ Turn your ideas into roadmap by applying 5-step Growth Flow review and prioritisation framework 🎯 As a result — you will create a diverse roadmap that will translate your ideas into Quick Wins, Meaningful shifts, and Big bets that you can present and get a buy-in. 📕 Resources that you'll get as a part of the course:— 30+ product flows for Onboarding, Adoption, and Upgrade experience from Notion, Canva, Dropbox, and more— User Research Pack for Growth initiatives (Survey templates, Interview guides, and more)— Live time with Kate Syuma on sessions to receive feedback ——— ❗️ This course is NOT about abstract growth strategies. It's about real product examples, behavioral science knowledge, and PRACTICE that you can combine with your real work project. — Products that use only Sales-led model (course is about Product-led Growth)&nbsp;— Too early-stage products in the development phase (course is about your flows to analyse and improve).&nbsp;&nbsp;— If you want t learn deep Data analytics&nbsp;(course is more about Qualitative user-centric approach)

Create your Product-led growth roadmap — from Quick wins to Big bets.

Bring your real growth challenge with Activation, Habit-forming, or Upgrades, and work on it by applying the frameworks shared in the course.

How many of your great designs collect dust because your recommendations get shot down? Creating great designs is only half the battle. The other half is communicating the value of your work to others. How can you tackle the most common communication challenges designers face, like: &nbsp;• Getting your team to move beyond quick fixes&nbsp;• Showing the impact of your design decisions&nbsp;• Communicating design value effectively to non-designers&nbsp;• Getting teams to approve your recommendations&nbsp;• Building persuasive design portfolios that attract employers? The most practical way is to use Data to back up your Design. Here's what you'll learn: Week 1: Design what businesses needSpend an hour to save a month's work. Understand the business's needs and how design decisions affect business outcomes, and you'll save weeks of miscommunication and rejection. Week 2: Integrate AI into your Design processes Rather than learning a single AI tool, you'll learn the fundamentals of integrating AI into your design process. This helps you manage knowledge and work more productively. Week 3: Don't present information: present insights You might have remarkable user findings, but it doesn't matter if no one acts on them. Refine user findings using frameworks employed by Netflix, Meta, and Airbnb to harness to drive action. Week 4: Learn Data Visualization, a powerful skill that drives actionWorking with Data allows you to use the powerful tools of Data visualization and Storytelling to make a real difference. No creative writing experience is needed. These aren't theoretical frameworks; they're practical tips that I've used to lead multi-million dollar Product-Led Growth Initiatives. I've also successfully led these initiatives in low UX maturity environments, where I've worked with stakeholders that didn't understand what UX was. What You'll Get Out of the Course* A practical, step-by-step process for working with data and refining findings into actionable insights* Real-world case studies from Meta, Nike, Netflix, and history demonstrating successful data-informed design strategies* Hands-on experience creating effective data visualizations and UX stories that drive change* Templates and frameworks I've personally used to lead multi-million dollar Product-Led Growth initiatives If you're ready to design projects faster, show how design affects business outcomes, and persuade your team to take action, you should take this course. --Training Your Team?Email kai@datainformeddesign.online for bulk pricing and personalized course options.
