One of the initiatives of CSITM is to coach and upskill professionals in Digital Transformation, Product Management and Design Skills, all of which are extremely relevant to the current technology industry. The workshop is part of this initiative.

Organizations need to focus on the user experience of their products, since users will abandon products with poor usability. This causes significant loss of business to organizations.
