UX Strategy Crash Course With Jaime Levy
- November 25, 2021 at 10:00
- Tallinn University, Narva mnt 25, Tallinn, Estonia
Jaime Levy, author of the best seller UX Strategy (4,8/5 Amazon) will conduct this comprehensive workshop offering participants a high-level overview of the methodology along with hands-on experience of how to practice the product strategy techniques.

UX strategy is a process that should be started before the design or development of a digital product commences. It is a practice that when done empirically is a better guarantee of a successful digital product than just crossing your fingers, designing some wireframes, and then writing a bunch of code.
