AA180 - UX Research vs Product Management: Pillow Fighting in a Burning House

Arguing Agile

Do You Really Need a UX Researcher on Your Product Team?
There are no easy answers on this podcast as we react to a provocative LinkedIn post.
On this episode, Product Manager Brian and Enterprise Business Agility Coach Om debate the merits and challenges of having dedicated UX researchers on product teams.
Listen as we explore:

• Are UX researchers a must-have or a luxury?
• Can product managers develop research skills?
• Does short-term thinking undervalue the impact of UX research?
• Could UX researchers upskill product teams?

Join us for a delightfully balanced discussion about product management, UX professionals, and agile teams.
