Our experience from the UX Mentor program

This blog post is written by Jorid and Armands, two of the participants of this years […]
Creating a Customer Journey toolkit
Do you know how your customers experience their interactions with you? Are you delivering according to the expectations? Do they experience any pain points?
The process of creating icons
Part of an icon family in their context. Some things I have learned over the years Design is an area in which learning is a continuous process. Trends and technology are constantly changing. They evolve and we, as designers, have to keep up with them. Over the years, I have learned that communication and constructive […]

My experience being a UX-intern at Visma
I was an intern at Visma Labs during a period of 15 weeks, in 2016, as part of my bachelor studies in Interaction Design at Malmö University. During my internship, I took on the project Mobile Expense, evaluating if Visma.net Expense, or parts of it, should be available as a mobile solution.
My experience from my first UX-marathon
The first thing that strikes me is that we are an exciting mix of people and roles. Here are those who work exclusively with user experience design, but also a variety of specialists in product development, sales, support and marketing. To gather skills and ideas from various stakeholders and then make a deep dive in an improvement area for a couple of days is really something you wish you did more often. When everyone has the same agenda – to make it easier for our customers – but with different starting points and mindsets it can be a challenge. But users are different and therefore it´s necessary to find as many different approaches to solutions as possible.
Slice the business impact!
All projects have goals. All stakeholders want as much value as possible in a limited amount of time and all projects struggle with resources and priorities. Can we combine strategic user experience work methods and lean thinking in order to ship great working products with limited amount of time? Yes, of course!
