Who's really responsible?

How many staff should answer their phone on a Saturday? What's the policy regarding postponement and cancellation? How quickly following the end of the fieldwork are the respondents paid? Can I contact the people who took part in my study? How many steps from the train station to the research venue?

Three quick tips for anyone who cares about this:

  1. Think carefully about the individuals experience at every touch point.
  2. Run through the process from the "other side" and call out what needs to improve.
  3. Make it easy for feedback from every possible angle so that you can make things better for everyone you interact with.
