[@LorettaBangBang]

One of the things most surprising to me when it comes to UX is how much you have to design your communication with others in addition to the actual product you are designing

[@femkedesign]

Yup! A big part of the role is getting buy in or convincing stakeholders - which requires good communication.

[@annapankin2099]

That was so so to the point!! Excellent template! I just happened to work on a report like that with my classmates last week. And it kind of had it all, but now I clearly see how it could have been done better. I totally feel like redoing it all 🙈 I also wanted to ask you, what would you say the balance between UX Research and UI in a role of a product designer is? You mention that you work with researchers, does it mean that if I like doing research I should target research job positions only or can I still do research being a product designer?

[@annapankin2099]

Thank you! 😊

[@itsgabed]

Thanks for the video, Femke! Maybe a silly question but could a research report be considered a “research condensed” case study? I’m trying to think how I’d add a report to one of my case studies without being repetitive but maybe I’m confused

[@yinghsi6481]

Hi Femke! Thank you so much for sharing this resource, it's super helpful. Do you use also use a similar layout when presenting your usability test findings to stakeholders/team members?

[@femkedesign]

Hey! This template is getting a little outdated now, but generally yes It's a similar format.

[@ScamVey]

Thank you so much for the template! It really helps us a lot! Can I also ask a question? In the next step part, what do we put on the Table? Is it our next proposal for the boss? Or the next thing that we would do? And also the schedule is going to match the table above?

Hello, nice educative video you put out, thank you. Tho anything I subscribe for your newsletter, I don’t get the free template sent to my mail

[@misba28]

What would be difference between insight at the start vs key finding in product feedback ?

[@anirudhbbalotiaa]

Interesting....on average how often is Research done at your workplace and how often is this kind of Report shared? Who takes care of Next Steps, I mean how does it flow into the Product Development Lifecycle?

[@KTPdrummergirl]

Hi Fem, thanks so much for the awesome content, I’ve signed up to the mailing list to receive the presentation template but its not come through yet - shall I submit the form again? Many thanks! K

[@brewnewb]

@@femkedesign Me too, I have put two emails for sign up but didn't get the email :(

[@lavetadhis7581]

Thanks Femke, I am not really sure I get the difference between key insights and key findings. Is there a clear way of distinguishing and insight from a finding?

[@femkedesign]

I think I use them interchangeably. You could say that a finding is a raw piece of data and an insight is a conclusion drawn from that finding.

[@geet.t8958]

Awesome Femke. It's really helpful. How can I contact you for more clarifications?

It's been a while since I made this video so don't remember the context of how the terms are used in this video. Perhaps i use them interchangeably?
