WorkTango Bulk Recognition
UX/UI, Form design, User testing
Client:
WorkTango Recognition current and prospective customers
Challenge:
• Improve existing and create new feature for the bulk Recognition tool, based on customer feedback
Customers asked for a way to send Recognitions to large groups of employees at one time, easily see how much that Recognition was worth, and be able to send from a user (e.g., the CEO), not the company. Prior to this new feature build, Customer Support needed to manually create these large Recognitions through a backend hack - a process that was time-consuming and tedious.

• Collaborated with members of the CS team to understand customer requirements and history
• Ideated on what new feature ideas would have the biggest impact
• Went through several rounds of designs to ensure flow was just right
• Beta-tested a working prototype with current customers to check for any friction
