Some details
Abbott, the global healthcare giant, asked us to completely redesign an existing legacy mentoring app designed for US employees into a modern, global web-based app that would connect and match mentors and proteges across the company of 70,000 people in 150 countries worldwide. We started by running a workshop with key executives and stakeholders where together we identified the problems and opportunities, drafted proto-personas
of representative users and agreed the hypotheses we were going to test with our ',minimum viable product',. We then completed interviews with users around the world to gain valuable insights and feedback into how mentorship works at Abbott. Taking those insights, we developed a minimum viable product starting with sketches, iterating through higher-fidelity wireframes we could put in front of users, and finally building a functional responsive HTML prototype (image above) for further testing and feedback with real users.
