<p>For most of us, the way that we conduct user research has been different during a year of lockdowns.  Not so much for Anna Lee Anda, UX Research Manager at Zendesk — as someone with a global customer base, she&#8217;s been working with these techniques for ages. She joined us on the podcast to talk about setting up your space for conducting remote research, a deep dive into note-taking, and much, much more.</p>

<h3>Quote of the Episode</h3>
<blockquote class="blockquote"><p>In research, you want to have a good amount of interviews involved so that you have enough information to make decisions in confidence early on. Our job is to emphasise it and make it easy to digest or easy to enact. However, we don’t cut out or bias it — or we try not to — in any way.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p></blockquote>
