Show notes
For a number of years Steve Portigal has been collecting user research war stories. The stories describe experiences researchers have had whilst doing fieldwork. Awkward, morally challenging, painful, unsuccessful.
We talk to Steve about the benefits of sharing our stories – good and bad – and the ethically challenging situations that field research can place you in.
