Design Strategists

Many CIOs are just beginning to understand the importance of having a design strategist on their team. A design strategist is responsible for using data-driven insights to create effective user experiences that meet customer needs. They work with stakeholders to identify customer problems and develop solutions that will address those issues in an efficient and cost-effective way. Design strategists also provide guidance for other aspects, including messaging, branding, user interface (UI) design, information architecture (IA), analytics and more.

Design strategists have the unique ability to bridge the gap between data-driven decision making and creative solutions by working collaboratively across disciplines. By understanding both the technical requirements of users as well as their emotional drivers, they can create products that people love to use while also meeting business objectives. In addition, they often help teams better understand user behavior so they can create more effective experiences and products.
