👻 When changing tools gives your team the scaries

Change might feel spooOOooOoky, but if you have research to back it up, you can rest assured you're not making a grave mistake.

Hi Wanto,   Change might feel spooOOooOoky, but if you have research to back it up, you can rest assured you're not making a grave mistake. At least, that was our approach when the Brand Design Team here at Dscout proposed a tool switch from legacy programs.   In the spirit(s) of listening to users (even if they are internal), we implemented usability testing to understand what the pain points were and how we could exorcise doubts.    Keep reading to learn how we made using a new program feel eerie-sistible to the team, and the successes and failures that gave us a scare along the way. In this article, sink your teeth into … How Dscout internally researched the switch from a legacy presentation tool to Figma Slides The challenges the switch posed for Executives, Design, Sales, Marketing, Product, and CS Trying out usability tests, feature exploration, and feedback capture The lessons we learned along the way, from involving skeptics early to measuring more than output TRICK OR TREAT YO'SELF Mark your calendars for Wednesday and Thursday, November 12-13, if you dare!   Explore spooktacular insights and breakthrough strategies from leaders at Disney, Headspace, Salesforce, and more. We'll provide two days of challenging ideas and forward-thinking conversations that aim to shape the future.   DON'T GHOST US Cheers, The People Nerds Team Dscout, 222 North LaSalle St, Chicago, IL Unsubscribe Manage preferences
