In Nordea, both home buyers and home owners faced confusion and stress while going through the home buying process. Moreover, the team responsible for the "Home Journey Hub" encountered challenges in prioritizing and focusing their product backlog. Although they discussed various features to develop, the team lacked direction and a comprehensive overview, resulting in negative feedback from customers and advisors. With only one UX resource employed, the team required assistance from me (as Service Design lead) along with a colleague, to provide them with methods and research to get insights that would guide their approach towards a customer-centric mindset, and an insights-driven backlog. In this article, I will describe the process and outcomes of the project that aimed to shift the team's focus from "inside-out" thinking to a more customer-centric approach.
