We work with our global clients to discover and deliver products at speed and scale.
As a product development services firm, we champion cross-disciplinary collaboration through our unified Product-Thinking approach from early product discovery through to the tireless sprints of product delivery.

Our expertise stretches across the full horizon of product development. Our engagements range from blue-sky innovation efforts to building new products and features to evolving existing products. No matter the engagement we design for customer needs, desires, and jobs to be done, and commercial success throughout.
Our team’s relentless pursuit of product impact guides our Product-Thinking approach, ensuring that every client engagement is designed to help them build products that delight customers and drive business impact.
Bringing together internal experts, client partners, and experienced product leaders, our events are a hub for the product development community to come together, exchange ideas, and elevate each others’ efforts.
Our best-in-class practitioners continuously share the theory and application of the Product-Thinking approach through product-focussed thought leadership content.

When you think of product development, words that may come to mind are prototypes, market research, and user testing. Other words that probably surfaced are agile development, UX design, and innovation. But one that may not have made the short-list is likely: creativity. Product teams may not realize it, but they engage in creativity every single day from the approaches they take for building prototypes to figuring out ways to collect feedback accurately from users. Paul Sobocinski, our Director of Engineering, Practice shares how software product teams and creativity are better together than apart, and how to leverage the power of imagination (an aspect of creativity) during a retrospective.

Some of us haven’t started new jobs during the pandemic but many of us have (including 100+ of the new Connectors that joined us these last two years!). For those who have, you acknowledge the challenges in getting acquainted with new processes, systems, and building relationships with colleagues remotely. Add this to ensuring that yourself and your loved ones stay safe and healthy. So, what’s the secret to successfully beginning a new job remotely? Values. Learn how Leanne Paura leveraged each of Connected’s values uniquely to overcome some of the challenges with transitioning to a remote-first world since she started in her role as VP of Design.
Our mission to build better products is built into the DNA of the company and instilled in every Connector. We focus on both the why and how of product development. We apply our Product-Thinking approach to build products that delight customers and drive business impact.
