UX research has outgrown its usability-testing roots. Today, it is one of the most powerful forces for shaping products, reducing risk, and driving business strategy. Yet too often, researchers stepping into leadership roles are left without the tools, frameworks, or guidance to make that leap with confidence.

In this groundbreaking guide, Dr Emmanuelle Savarit draws on two decades of experience building and leading research teams across industries to show how UX research can become strategic powerhouse. Blending practical frameworks with candid lessons from the field, she maps out how to:

• Transition from individual contributor to impactful leader
• Build high-performing research teams and scalable operations
• Align research with business goals and KPIs
• Earn credibility at the executive table
• Navigate politics, underperformance, and organisational silos
• Evangelise insights and make research indispensable across the company
• Lead your first 365 days with clarity, confidence, and impact

Alongside checklists, canvases, and a full first-year leadership roadmap, this volume also includes a bonus chapter on Al, drawing lessons from past digital transformations to show how UX research must lead in shaping ethical, human-centred Al adoption.

Both a practical playbook and a manifesto, The UX Research Powerhouse is the essential guide for research leaders who want to move beyond tactical delivery into lasting influence.
