Sara Fortier, CEO and founder of Outwitly and author of Design Research Mastery: How To Lead Research That Builds Buy-in and Great Products, is returning to Ottawa for a conversation and book signing at Indigo Kanata!
We’re inviting Ottawa’s UX design and research community to stop by, connect with Sara 1:1, ask questions inspired by the book, and get your copy signed in person.
Bring your own copy of the book, purchase a copy ahead of time (Amazon / Indigo), or pick one up on-site while supplies last.
Outwitly is one of CapCHI‘s new sponsors this season!
What to expect:
- Meet and greet with Sara Fortier and other Outwitly team members
- Get your copy of Design Research Mastery signed
- Fun Outwitly branded extras for the first folks to arrive
- Conversation about earning stakeholder trust, turning research into real business impact, and what AI is changing (and not changing) about UX and service design roles
- Curious about the publishing process in UX? Sara would be happy to chat about that too
Sara grew up in Ottawa and came back in 2016, after years in Silicon Valley, to found Outwitly. Her debut book Design Research Mastery launched across North America this past April. This signing at Indigo is an opportunity to mark that milestone close to home and meet more of the UX designers and researchers working right here in Ottawa.
