In this session, Sara Ulius-Sabel (Sr. Staff UX Researcher at ServiceNow) explores how Lean Thinking — a systematic approach originating from Toyota’s manufacturing practices — can transform how we approach UX research operations.

Research teams are under increasing pressure to deliver more value with constrained resources. But what if the real problem isn’t doing more with less, but rather eliminating what doesn’t add value in the first place? Sara will share how Lean Thinking helped her identify and eliminate waste throughout her career, from UX design and user research at Whirlpool to UX research at ServiceNow.

We’ll explore the seven types of waste in research operations (waiting, defects, over-processing, inventory, motion, overproduction, and transportation) and how to systematically identify and eliminate them. We’ll also discuss a timely new dimension: How does AI fit into Lean Thinking? As AI becomes both a producer of research artifacts and a consumer of our inputs, how can we use this shift as a catalyst to fundamentally rethink value and waste?

Attendees will gain:

  • A framework for identifying the seven types of waste in their research operations
  • Practical strategies to minimize waste and maximize value for stakeholders
  • Understanding of how to apply Lean principles to AI integration in research
  • Actionable steps to audit and improve their research workflows

This session is ideal for UX researchers, research ops professionals, and research leaders seeking to operate more efficiently and deliver greater impact.

Using AI in research workflows is fairly common practice now. But many teams still struggle with knowing what good research with AI looks like.

In this session with Maria Rosala, Director of Research at NN/g, we’ll discuss where human judgement is critical in the research process, how to assess tradeoffs between quality and speed, and why claims like “AI removes bias” can be misleading.

We’ll also tackle the real pressures researchers are facing right now (from a tough job market to heightened ROI scrutiny), and share practical takeaways on how to adapt as the research role continues to evolve.

Research isn’t the outcome, it’s the output. And it’s really only impactful when paired with skills like effective ideation, collaboration, and communication.

The future of UX research lies in adopting a more strategic mindset. One that ensures research influences priorities, shapes product direction, and actually gets used.

In this session, Sahar Chung, Director of Product Strategy at Multiplayer, will reveal why advancing in user research and being promoted to senior roles isn’t about mastering more methodologies. It’s about developing the storytelling and stakeholder management skills that give research a real seat at the table.

​In this session, join Ned Dwyer and Pedro Vargas as they explore the importance of measuring research effort and impact through the Researcher Effort Score. ​Pedro’s development of the Researcher Effort Score—a metric similar to the Customer Effort Score—quantifies how easy or difficult it is to conduct research within an organization. This transforms the way companies demonstrate the impact of research, proving that it extends far beyond administrative work. ​With research teams under increasing pressure to do more with less, measuring impact has never been more important. This session will explore:
  • ​How the Researcher Effort Score works and why it matters.
  • ​Tactical ways to measure and communicate the impact of research and ResearchOps
  • ​How Great Question supports research teams in tracking and improving their researcher effort score.
​This session is perfect for ResearchOps professionals, senior researchers, and organizational leaders aiming to streamline research processes and demonstrate the value of research and research ops.

Collecting lots of learnings and insights doesn’t necessarily add up to making an impact.

This is something that Jake Burghardt, author of “Stop Wasting Research”, has seen firsthand throughout his 20+ years in the field.

Thankfully, he’s got some great tips to help make “unaddressed” research more useful for product development, and keep “top insights” alive in decision making cycles!

Don’t miss this chance to learn how to turn overlooked research into real value!
