The Cross-Functional User Journey Alignment

Break down silos and align Product Design and Engineering on a single cohesive user journey.

About this session

Product, design, and engineering teams often operate with conflicting assumptions about how a user moves through a feature, leading to technical friction and design inconsistencies. This session brings these roles together to build a shared map of the user experience, identifying specific pain points and technical constraints in a single hour.

Why it works

The process forces participants to reconcile their individual perspectives into one visual flow, making hidden disagreements visible before they become development bottlenecks. By documenting decisions as they happen, the team shifts from abstract discussions to a concrete agreement on what will be built and why.

What you’ll walk away with

  • Clear actionable outcomes from a 3-step facilitated process
  • Increased participant engagement and buy-in
  • Documented decisions and next steps
  • Improved team alignment on the topic

Who it’s for

Product Designers, UX Researchers
