-
Olga - UX researcher
I would like to thank you for today's lecture. Not only was the theory very interesting and clearly presented, but the opportunity to try it out immediately with afterward's commentary was extremely beneficial! I could openly tell you that it was the most interesting lecture I've seen throughout the year.
-
Maite - Design Strategy
Not only the content was very interesting and applicable, but the session itself had a super clear and engaging structure.
In fact, it is so applicable that I have already absorbed the content and used it in a Design Sprint session with the team.
-
Rachita - Senior Service Designer
I truly enjoyed learning throughout as I realised I might have used elements of it in the past but it always helps to have a framework to guide you. :) I used it on two interviews I had to conduct post the workshop and I saw myself getting meaty data in a significantly lesser amount of time. Thanks again!
-
Brandon - Freelance Digital Designer
I loved the session and it has changed my perspective on how I conduct interviews. It makes conversations run easy and you can get all the info you want. It’s definitely something I’ll use in my career. Also thanks for taking your time and providing me with the opportunity to learn. Much appreciated!

“His GRAMS framework- a structured and rapid way of running and decoding user interviews has become the de facto standard within our office.”
-
Yash - UX Researcher
I recently had the opportunity to attend a workshop hosted by Gary van Broekhoven. He introduced the group to his innovative GRAMS methodology to better articulate research questions. The GRAMS method helps give an encompassing view of demystifying user behaviour to further unearth patterns.
The workshop gave real time to-dos to support the universal axiom - 'The easiest way to design is to ask the right questions'.

A passionate professional, Gary´s “learning by doing” approach transforms any working session into a continuous learning experience for both coworkers and clients. His ability to apply real life examples to tackle different challenges, along with his extensive understanding of tools and processes, gives him the ability to effortlessly transform raw data into actionable insights and innovative solutions. An inspiring mentor to learn from and fantastic person to work with!

Akshay - Design Consultant
Thankyou so much Gary! I think this is a fantastic framework but can involve some metrics to judge the outcome of the interview!
-
Eric - Product Lead
I found the framework interesting to have in mind when defining research goals and approaching a new project. What I highlight the most is the meaning section, and how the positive -positive and negative-negative questions can allow us to go deeper into the participants' mindsets

Gary van Broekhoven
Consumer Psychologist and Behaviour Designer at What Drives Them
Nominated for the Master Teacher of the Year Award 2024 by Harbour Space University, I've certainly travelled a long path from designing gambling machines, and toys for Disney, being a researcher in a university hospital then to making significant strides in healthcare and advising top global brands with some of the leading innovation consultancies in the world.
Studying consumer psychology and behaviour design including Dr. BJ Fogg at Stanford University truly transformed my career, I realised that those innovation books were all about process and what made a difference was people not just process.
These insights sparked the creation of several of my own frameworks making innovation easier and more impactful for my students.
Now, I'm on a mission: to equip as many CX professionals as possible with these skills. My vision is to not only turn you into industry leaders but also to improve the lives of millions of users globally. By sharing my expertise, I aim to inspire and enable you to design experiences that genuinely make the world a better place.

Recalling my past knowledge about consumer behaviors and psychology lessons... now Gary matched them up, mixing all the materials to hit a bigger target in analysing how consumers react, purchase, and response from those aspects.

Very interesting concepts that are important for us to understand consumer (and our own) psychology and behavioural patterns better. Gary focuses less on textual learning and more on class participation and discussions.

I liked that the theories are used in our daily life practise. The course was eye-opening regarding how marketing strategies strongly leverage the behaviours of the consumers, and it is really helpful.
