What I have learned from this project
To communicate my solution to the stakeholders, I must put effort into explaining the reasoning behind my design. I have found that creating a mockup of both their initial suggestions and then presenting my recommendation helps this process.
In the example below, the executives were looking to display all category’s shortcut icons on the home screen. After seeing their idea and my recommendation together, they can visualise and understand which one is a more suitable option for the users. I believe that’s important to be included in the decision-making process.
