AGENDA
*The Doctor is In: Using Research Office Hours to Maximize Impact*
At Toast, we've implemented weekly research office hours to support designers, product managers and all other comers to conduct their own research. We started out just trying to find ways not to say no, but quickly found that our colleagues have a huge appetite for building their research skills.
Deirdre Costello is a human-centered researcher, storyteller & educator, and was Toast's first UX researcher.

*Prepping for a Redesign: The Value of Building Empathy Early*
Before embarking on a major redesign of Toast’s kitchen product, we spent a full day working in a restaurant kitchen, doing everything from peeling Brussels sprouts to washing dishes. What we learned from that experience influenced our design and development in unexpected ways, and gave the whole team a valuable perspective on our design vision.
Abby Lokshin is a data-driven product designer, with a passion for creating functional and delightful experiences.
