One of the best things you can do to advance your career is elicit real-time feedback at work.
You will gain a clearer understanding of what you’re doing well—and what you can change—in the moment. That is more powerful than hearing feedback after the fact.

Skeptics of user experience research often point to the following quote attributed to Henry Ford: “If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses.” The logic goes that if Ford had conducted user experience (UX) research and listened to his customers, he would have tried to optimize the horse and would never have invented the car. Real innovation cannot happen by simply iterating in response to customer feedback, but instead requires product visionaries that lead solely based on their intuition. What, then, is the value of UX research?

A recent survey by Stanford Social Innovation Review confirmed a surprising fact: in an era where customer feedback is ubiquitous in the for-profit world, both doers and donors in the social innovation sphere struggle to systematically understand the preferences and experiences of the people they are seeking to help: the nonprofit customer.
To be sure, social innovators want to understand their client’s needs. The survey found that 88% of 1,986 respondents reported that “gathering feedback” was one of their priorities in measuring impact. But only 13% were using it as a top source of insight for improving services; and two-thirds said that lack of staff capacity and resources were the major barrier to implementing feedback systems.

In every meeting Jeff Bezos attends, there’s an empty chair among the C-suite employees and board members to represent the customer.
The idea is to remind decision-makers that customers can’t speak at the meeting, but the company still has to prioritize them.
For PMs at the drawing board, it’s easy to get lost in the numbers of usage behavior and statistics. They don’t look at the empty chair, but they still need to consider what the customer would think.
With so much behavioral data out there, what’s the use in pestering the customer to ask for insight? PMs are afraid to contact their customers through email, NPS surveys, or in-app messaging, too worried they’ll annoy users or get skewed data since only their happiest or unhappiest customers will respond. Asking your users for feedback sounds like a great way to give the customer a seat at the table.

Each and every page on your website / mobile app serves a different purpose, so why should your feedback buttons be any different? Well they’re not – at least not anymore which is something that many feedback companies have caught onto. In fact, most of these companies know that in order to get the best and most relevant feedback results, you (the user) will want to tweak your feedback forms so that they are aligned with the goals of specific pages or funnels.

When I think of user onboarding, I am always reminded of the famous ‘IKEA effect’. Those of you have endured the emotional rollercoaster that comes with assembling an IKEA wardrobe or nightstand, you might already have an idea of where I’m going with this. The IKEA effect is defined as the effect ‘where you assign more value to products that you’ve had a hand in creating’. In other words, for many of us the result is far more satisfying when we’ve successfully completed a task on our own. Those who have studied this effect even go as far as to say that ‘people become more attached simply because of their own efforts’. This is a good analogy when it comes to understanding the value of a good (better yet, successful) user onboarding process.

An app’s store rating has a tremendous impact on how well an app ranks in the app store and strongly influences what percentage of store listing impressions result in downloads. Many apps (and by extension businesses) live and die with their app store ratings. At the same time, app store ratings are simply a reflection of how well an app is received and how it interacts with its users. Many would-be negative reviews can be circumvented through in-app feedback mechanisms. In turn, many potential positive reviews are left unfulfilled because a user was not properly prompted. This article will explore how apps and app owners can combat negative reviews, successfully solicit positive reviews, and even convert 1-star ratings into 5-stars.

Uber in late 2016 redesigned its Driver app but as CEO Dara Khosrowshahi highlighted on Tuesday, it’s already showing its age. Worse yet, Khosrowshahi concedes that Uber went about its last design in the wrong way – doing the work based on what they thought drivers wanted, launching it and hoping for the best.
