During this podcast session, Dave will highlight the applied research mindset: how to think about what you need to learn from users and customers, and how to uncover it with just enough research. He will take a deep dive into developing ideas into prototypes, and learn how to run successful concept and prototype tests with real users.

Listeners will learn:

  • The Applied mindset: how to think about learning for product development
  • Research skills: how to interview users
  • Research mechanics: how to run (concept, prototype) tests
