Centralis Co-Founder Kathi Kaiser will be presenting a talk entitled “Keep Your Friends Close and Your Enemies Closer: Using Competitors to Do Better UX Research” at this year’s Midwest UX Conference in Louisville, KY. The talk will be held at 10:30 am ET on Saturday, October 22 at the Palace Theater.
Told through first-hand stories of user research, Kathi will share high-level strategy and practical tips for using your competitors as a source of alternative designs in usability testing. You’ll learn how to incorporate the designs of your rivals into research projects, and come away with the means to break design logjams by putting your competitors to work for you.
