Attracting and Retaining CX and UX Talent

Training Program Description:

Come and learn enough about CX and UX, its workers, and its processes so that you can improve your ability to attract and retain great talent. You’ll be able to create better jobs. You’ll be able to recognize what typically goes wrong at companies that make CX workers never apply, or make them very likely to quit your company.

Your company imagines it sells software, services, or goods. But ultimately you sell your talent, the people who work at your company. If you hire the wrong people, if processes are broken, or culture is suffering, products and services are likely to be poor. Customer outcomes are likely to be poor.

An example of one disconnect is how you want to assess CX/UX abilities before hiring us... must be a great researcher, must have years of UX experience, must show proficiency in information architecture. But then so many jobs want us to hold workshops where "everybody can do the UX." Nobody assessed workshop attendees' UX-related abilities. Product doesn't hold workshops to have everybody guess at and vote on their favorite product roadmap. Engineers don't have a sticky note festival so we can all decide the technical architecture together. Something is very broken at the company when we allow unqualified people to make decisions in a specialized domain.

It's extremely important to invest some time now in understanding what CX and UX are, who does them, how, why, and how so qualified candidates are more likely to apply and stay.

This training is completely free. Over 8 hours of content, information, and advice are broken into 50 videos.
