Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Methodology
Amárach was commissioned by the Data Protection Commissioner to
conduct a national research project to capture, analyse and determine small
and medium enterprises’ (SMEs) understanding and levels of awareness of
their obligations under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
To effectively examine knowledge, interviews were conducted with 500
businesses spread across the Republic of Ireland, including a good
distribution of micro-, small and medium enterprises and across a range of
industry sectors.
The questionnaire was designed and supplied by the Data Protection
Commissioner.
The surveys were carried out via phone employing Amárach’s in-house CATI
(Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing) system.
They were asked a series of questions exploring the following:
• Types of data collected
• Knowledge of data law
• Awareness of, and preparation for, GDPR
Interviewing fieldwork took place between 24th of April – 10th of May 2017.
