Empathy Map by Pino de Francesco
An empathy map is a tool used in design thinking and user-centered design to help designers, product managers, and other stakeholders understand and empathize with the perspective of end users.
The empathy map is a visual representation of the user's thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and pain points in relation to a particular problem or challenge.
The empathy map is divided into four quadrants:
Thoughts: What is the user thinking and saying to themselves?
Feelings: What emotions is the user experiencing?
Actions: What is the user doing?
Pain Points: What are the user's pain points and challenges?
The empathy map is usually created through a combination of user research, such as interviews and surveys, and observation of users in their natural environment. The empathy map helps to provide a more complete picture of the user's experience and can be used to identify areas for improvement or to validate assumptions about the user's needs and motivations.

Service Blueprint Workshop
Works best for:
Research & Design
The Service Blueprint Workshop by Lidia Olszewska is designed for collaborative service design sessions. This template helps teams visualize service processes, identify pain points, and brainstorm solutions. Use it to align cross-functional teams, improve service delivery, and ensure a seamless customer experience. It's ideal for workshops aimed at service optimization, fostering collaboration, and strategic planning in service design.
Zoom Levels Template
The Zoom Level Template is a tool to examine a problem from various perspectives. For more innovative solutions, consider the issue broadly. Ascending the ladder enables you to broaden your perspective (ask, 'How might we?'). When confronted with an overly broad scope that hinders progress, descending the ladder helps narrow your focus (ask 'What if we narrowed?').
Customer Touchpoint Map Template
Works best for:
Desk Research, Product Management, Mapping
To attract and keep loyal customers, you have to truly start to understand them—their pain point, wants, and needs. A customer touchpoint map helps you gain that understanding by visualizing the path your customers follow, from signing up for a service, to using your site, to buying your product. And because no two customers are exactly alike, a CJM lets you plot out multiple pathways through your product. Soon you’ll be able to anticipate those pathways and satisfy your customers at every step.

Design
Understanding the balance between importance and difficulty is crucial for effective decision-making and progress. To aid in prioritization, a simple 2x2 matrix can map these factors on the x-axis and y-axis, respectively. This framework allows you to assess the trade-offs and tensions involved. The lower left quadrant represents quick wins, while the upper left quadrant consists of luxury items that may be costly with limited returns. The upper right quadrant contains strategic items that require significant investments for substantial results. Finally, the lower right quadrant houses the most valuable items, offering high impact at a lower cost.
