Putting joy on the roadmap - Jenny Wen, Mihika Kapoor, Kee Yen Yeo (Config 2023)

Speakers:
Jenny Wen – Design Manager, Figma
Mihika Kapoor – Senior Product Manager, Figma
Kee Yen Yeo – Product Designer, Figma

Since FigJam’s launch two years ago, the team has shipped dozens of features, big and small, to bring fun to working together virtually. High-fives, washi tape, cursor chat, reactions, stamps, stickers, and more. These features have made a huge impact on our community, as well as our internal motivation and energy. One question the team frequently gets is, how do we prioritize things that bring people joy, but don’t seem to push any sort of traditional success metric? And how do we work in a way that’s conducive to coming up with delightful ideas? In this session, we’ll share some behind-the-scenes from FigJam launches like April Fun Day, FigJam’s 1st birthday, Jam-o-ween, music player, and more. We’ll also share our own principles for delight, how you can put joy on your own roadmap, and why it’s more important than ever to do.
