👋 Hello! I’m Gregg.

I'm a user experience research leader and author of Research Practice. This site is where I work through ideas and share what I’ve learned. Questions? Get in touch!

There is no one way to do UX research

We're all navigating our own paths

On transitioning from design to research

Break the research process into a series of smaller experiences to design for your participants and colleagues

Things I repeat often enough about surveys that it was time to write them down

I’ve developed strong opinions about how to build surveys that yield useful information while prioritizing the user experience

This is where the hammer goes

Just enough direct reports

The work of UX research is complex, and oversight of that work is a commitment. As a research manager, you must afford time and space to talk through project plans with your directs, and you must also dedicate time to review the evolving plans and documentation created by everyone on your team. There’s no shortcut: the buck stops with you
