Excellent book for all levels

Jaime Levy’s UX strategy is a wonderful book for any one in the field of product design. She interweaves her personal experiences which helps us understand what UX strategy really is. The narration is good, but would have liked more voice modulation.

Knowledgeable

I liked the in detail discussion on testing in this book. The information was a piece that I needed and did not know prior. So thank you.

A Must Read for Product Teams

This is a great resource - should be required reading - for product teams wanting to deliver innovative products at speed. This book breaks down the critical steps for success and provides clear examples of the risks and rewards of following or ignoring due diligence and proper processes. ie: understand how your business strategy is being/should be consumed by the people you want to reach to avoid wasting time, effort, and money AND asking/answering the difficult question up front "Is this the right thing to do?" This book covers the 4 tenants of UX strategy that are critical keys to success.

This second edition is a great example of how the industry continues to evolve by referencing the impact the pandemic has had on user research and collaboration. Jaime does a fantastic job of narrating how teams can pivot to get the job done remotely without compromising standards or skipping a beat.

Successful product teams understand the value of UX strategy and how it supports business strategy. If you're new to the world of UX or an oldtimer, this book is a great read/listen to get your approach on the right track.

Worth listening to (well organized and informative)

Well organized and easy to follow. Interestingly, while this book recommends user testing before product development, my engineering husband insists technology innovation does not have to come after user testing. Would appreciate it more if the author could discuss the difference between product development and technology innovation.

Something for every UX designer

This audiobook has great sound quality. I think listeners will enjoy the author’s ability to tell stories based on their experience while teaching the more advanced subject matters of UX design. Junior UXers will love the section on rapid prototyping.

Starting in the UX field? You should listen to this book

This is an excellent book for beginners in the field of UX. It provides valuable insights on conducting competitor research, developing products based on a strong value proposition, and validating ideas before investing resources in something that may not have market fit.

Excellent book 👏

Loved how Jaime outlined the UX strategy process in great detail and uses stories to give them context and make them tangible. Many hands-on methods and processes and not high level talk around UX strategy. Also great adjustments to the world of „new work“ - how UX strategy has changed / methods have changed trough COVID. Strong recommendation to any type of designer and design leader.

Awesome book!

Listening to this book was great. Voice was soothing and had a great pace. Always been a big fan of Jamie Levy and her ways of design thinking. Thank you, Jamie!

Accessible and Thorough Guide to UX Strategy

Jaime Levy is a certifiable UX legend, and this book is a comprehensive yet accessible dive into approaching a business problem like a UX strategist. While I'm a novice to the field (and a 20 year old), Jaime's narration of her and her students' case studies was completely comprehensible and often flat out fun to listen to. This book doesn't cut corners; Jaime will exhaustively describe how to approach a problem with a level of detail I appreciated. I'll surely be returning to this to study more closely the step by step solutions offered to given scenarios, but the big picture ideas have already changed my own entrepreneurial thinking.

Product testing strategies

The book is great. Having a companion book with audio book will be helpful. Great strategies and concepts 👌‼️
