The Challenge
Executive User Problem Statement:
As an executive, I'm struggling with transparency and troubleshooting within our mobile interface. Changes to executive-level data aren't clearly communicated, leaving me unaware of important updates until it's too late. Additionally, the lack of self-service options and configurable settings prevents me from effectively analyzing data or resolving issues on my own. I need better visibility and more control to respond swiftly to global data changes and troubleshoot independently.

HR Practitioner User Problem Statement
As an HR Practitioner, I struggle to manage and access the Executive Experience in ADP’s platform. I can't test it before enabling it, which makes me hesitant to trust Executive Manager Insights. I also lack the same data access and UI as executives, making it hard to troubleshoot issues remotely and support my team effectively.

Friction Points
Onboarding Challenges
Practitioners can't test the executive experience before enabling it, leading to distrust and avoidance of Executive Manager Insights.
Visibility Limitations
Practitioners lack access to the Executive Experience and face different interfaces for Analytics and Benchmarking than executives and first-line managers.
Troubleshooting Challenges
Practitioners struggle with remote troubleshooting, requiring physical presence to resolve issues and fearing executive misreporting or system errors.

Transparency Challenges:
Modifications to executive-level data were not adequately communicated within the mobile interface, resulting in a lack of alerts or notifications. This oversight caused significant delays in recognizing and responding to global data changes.
Troubleshooting Limitations:
Executives faced challenges due to restricted self-service options for data analysis and troubleshooting. The absence of configurable settings further compounded the issue, limiting their ability to independently resolve problems.
