Research
Prototype & Test
We conducted three design reviews to enhance our concept, involving departing employees, their teams (for organized handovers), and the HR department.
I was the main facilitator on the three reviews, two were online and one onsite. In these ocasions, we validated the user journey, gathered feedback for improvement, and tested the concept using paper wireframes.
Final Solution
Incorporating feedback to improve knowledge transfer templates and navigation. I designed a design system the final screens for HR Admins, while another colleague designed the ones to departing employees. We also designed together the tool's service offer.
