See all- UX Monthly: How advanced journey mapping can save your ass in a GenAI worldMr.Green Boutique Office Amsterdam by Mews, Amsterdam
GenAI isn’t sci-fi anymore; it’s real, and it’s already everywhere. But let’s be honest: slapping a chatbot onto your digital product won’t make you a visionary. Now is the time to dust off some of those so-called “old-school” UX tools we’ve collectively sidelined. Journey mapping, born in the late 1990s, is still one of the sharpest ways to understand what’s really going on in your users’ minds — and today, it might be more relevant than ever. We’ve moved far beyond fixed-width 1024px screens into a world of diverse interaction models and touchpoints. UX work is no longer just about pixels; it’s about systems and scenarios.
In this talk, Slava will share how his team applies journey mapping while working on complex enterprise software. He’ll also walk through some helpful templates to understand various domains, processes, and data connections in a truly holistic way that fuels innovation. Slava will cover both tactical and strategic uses of journey mapping, including common pitfalls that lead to vague outcomes, and tricks to make the method genuinely actionable.

- World Usability Day 2025Needs location
World Usability Day is single day of events occurring around the world that brings together communities of professional, industrial, educational, citizen, and government groups for our common objective: to ensure that the services and products important to life are easier to access and simpler to use.
2025 Theme: Emerging Technologies and the Human Experience
Emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, augmented reality, and immersive interfaces are transforming human interactions with digital systems and environments. As these innovations rapidly evolve, it is crucial to prioritize user privacy, build robust trust mechanisms, and maintain human-centered design principles. By thoughtfully integrating technological advancements with ethical considerations, we can create digital experiences that are not only powerful and innovative but also respectful of individual needs and rights.
