Power of Interview. Customer Interview Techniques

Learn how to obtain more quality insights from people during an interview with our interactive 4-hour workshop

Problem interview is one of the most powerful ways to learn actionable insights for your product or service. But you won’t get valuable information without preparation and using proper techniques.

This workshop will introduce you to different interview techniques and help you practice them all. You will learn how to overcome possible difficulties to get more quality insights from talking to people, whatever the project scope is.

This workshop will focus on open- and closed-ended questions, the 5 Whys technique, and the 5W+H technique.

Interview techniques to be covered

At this 4-hour workshop, you will learn how to:

👉 Take a deep dive into specific aspects of a problem and widen the search with closed- and open-ended questions

Transforming closed-ended questions into open-ended ones, you’ll be able to learn more about user/customer experience, needs, expectations, and much more.

👉 Get to the root cause of the problem with the 5 Whys technique

This technique creates empathy and allows you to understand your customers’ needs, emotions, motivations, and pain points.

👉 Get insights with the 5W+H technique

Being a shorthand for “Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How”, this technique helps to achieve a deeper understanding of the problem, allowing you to explore the context around the situation, who's involved in it, who's affected, etc.
