Victor Zhu- Let Simplification Unleash the Potential

In the 21st century, everyone is in the technology business. Are you using technology to keep the lights on or to get closer to your customers? In September 2015, Halifax Regional Municipality’s ICT division launched its rebranded Self-service Portal across the organization. The new service portal offers 5000 employees a revolutionary change of their ICT online experience – modernized, consumerized, easy to use and simple to navigate! From ideation to fruition, Victor will showcase how his team’s creative and unique approach resulted in a 35% self-service adoption rate increase. This session will highlight how to keep a clear focus on “User Experience”, leverage cross departmental collaboration, conduct UX surveys, host ‘Lovers & Haters’ brainstorm workshops and interactive UATs. It will also include a live ‘behind-the-scenes’ portal demo that will inspire the audience to embark on a similar journey to maximize the value of a centralized service portal.
