For the first time in recorded history, the global workforce will be made up of 5 different generations – Veterans, Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials, and generation Z . In terms of the business landscape, a direct outcome of the changing demographics is that your consumers and their needs, challenges and demands are changing.

'Nowadays, there are millions of apps available in the market, and there is a prediction from Goldman Sachs and population projections, United Nations that, "in 2018, 14.4% of the billion people on earth will purchase at least one mobile device." So, it is clear just by looking at the figures that mobile will overtake desktop purchases.
The obvious reason for these figures is the increase in mobile usage among people. People have started scrutinizing the User Experience (UX) of any mobile application, along with viewing products, comparing prices, reviewing, purchasing etc. So, if you want your users to spend more time on your mobile application, then you have to make it more user friendly and interesting.

The introduction of UX to a company’s workflow is often a straightforward process. There’s a common understanding that you will be delivering improvements to products that will enable better acceptance of those products in the market.
However, the role of the product manager can often clash with the UX role. Why? Well… they really ought to be the same people. Product managers should be championing and deploying UX already to ensure their own product’s viability. The fact that you’ve been brought on to deliver UX can be threatening for the product manager.
In some cases this threat is going to end up on the receiving end of outright hostility. In others it’s going to be more that the product manager throws a little spanner in the works at every turn whilst maintaining a reasonable profile. In others still, it’s going to be a case of butting heads over things without rancour but without really incorporating recommendations from the UX colleague. So how do we go about aligning UX work with the product manager so that the relationship works for both parties?
