Wow, I'm thrilled by the positive response to my talk at the Women in Product conference this week. 🙌🏼 Huge thanks to Women In Product for hosting such an incredible event and to everyone who reached out with kind words and thoughtful messages. The outpouring of support highlights how crucial and timely this topic is. 💖 The upside of connection is huge. The behavioral science on this is undeniable and most products are barely scratching the surface. Special shoutouts to Prathibha Chintagunta, Sinan Zhang, Jess Corr,  Amanda Oster, Parul Mahajan, Stephanie Ubiergo, Ketaki Chande, and Carrie Ko for your feedback and engagement. I'm excited to continue the conversation with you all! 🤗 Here are some key principles for designing connection in your product: 👉 Draw attention to opportunities for users can connect. 👀 🚀 Make connection easier by reducing logistical and psychological friction. 🔍 Help people see commonalities by emphasizing small similarities (even small ones work!) 🌟 Enable compliments! Both the giver and receiver benefit. This one’s especially good for community-building. At Irrational Labs, connection is just one of the many ways we’re helping companies create impactful products that truly resonate with their users.. 🌐 Curious to learn more?

Community is something that must be nurtured. In today’s digital world, every product or service we design shapes the spaces where people connect, collaborate, and find belonging. With this impact comes a profound responsibility — to ensure these spaces uplift, include, and protect. Community impact is about creating digital experiences that amplify diverse voices, and bridge divides. It’s about recognizing the ripple effects of every interaction, from a single comment to a global movement, and ensuring we contribute positively to both online and offline worlds.

When you work on bringing a vision to life, there's one thing you dont take into account. You spend 80% of your time solving problems and removing barriers to ensure steady progress toward the goal. It’s the same when managing a company or a team. That's why celebrating success, even the smallest ones, is crucial. It's not just about business success. It's about appreciating every barrier we overcome. This sense of achievement fuels our motivation and strengthens our drive to keep pushing forward. I feel the same way about User1st's mission to bring true digital inclusion to websites and apps. It doesn't make sense to me that the physical world must be accessible, but the digital world does not. So, every day, I need to prove that accessibility is good for businesses when I want to be in a world where that is just obvious. As Yoda said, there's no trying. There's only succeeding. Ans this is something I must do. I urge you to join me, not just because it’s beneficial for business but because digital inclusion is imperative. It's the right thing to do, and we have the power to make it happen. #Growth #Business #Accesability

In our rapidly evolving digital landscape, it's imperative that we prioritize "Inclusivity" in every aspect of product development. Who benefits from Accessibility? 💡 EVERYONE 💡 . It's about creating a seamless experience for all users, regardless of ability or disability. Here are some key considerations: 1️⃣ User-Centered Design: Putting users at the forefront ensures that your product is intuitive and navigable for all. 2️⃣ Diverse Perspectives: Engage with a wide range of users, including those with disabilities, to gain insights that lead to more inclusive design. 3️⃣ Compliance and Beyond: Meeting accessibility standards is a baseline. True inclusivity goes beyond compliance and considers a spectrum of user needs. 4️⃣ Innovation through Constraints: Designing with accessibility in mind often leads to creative solutions that benefit all users. 5️⃣ Legal and Ethical Imperatives: Accessibility is not only good practice, but in many regions, it's a legal requirement. At #Dtechsystems, we're not just creating products; we're creating opportunities for everyone to engage, connect, and thrive in the digital world. #AccessibilityInDesign #InclusiveDesign #DigitalInclusion #UserExperience #Dtech #DtechSystems
