What if your organization could see every product, service, or process through the eyes of your customers?
Join us for an engaging session with Jim Kalbach, author of The Jobs to Be Done Playbook and Mapping Experiences, as he introduces a practical framework to uncover real customer motivations and align your teams around them.
In this session, you’ll learn:
The theory behind Jobs to Be Done (JTBD) and how it reframes value creation
How to identify what customers are truly “hiring” your product or service to do
The key elements and process steps for applying JTBD in your work
How JTBD fosters a shared language that helps entire organizations become more customer-centric
Whether you’re in product, design, research, or strategy, this session will expand how you think about customer needs, and how to meet them.
