You are a new UX researcher. You are looking forward to getting started. Your first day is finally here, you are all excited to meet your colleagues, but instead of „how interesting“, you hear „what is UX research and why are you here“? If so, stay calm, it is normal. In this talk, I will walk you through the process of building a UX research department in an environment where people don’t understand why their products need to be tested. I’m going to give you some simple and practical tips that can be implemented in almost any organisation to help you set up research processes, increase research visibility, and get your colleagues involved, even if they are not the ones who would immediately support you right now.
