Inclusive finance


Project Goal
Dependence on others to access money signifies a lack of autonomy over personal finances. Relying on external assistance for managing funds can lead to delays, misunderstandings, and errors. It also undermines the confidence in financial transactions. To promote true financial independence, it is essential to empower individuals to manage their banking needs independently.

Why standing in queues increases anxiety?
Research shows that how people feel while waiting matters more than the length of the wait. By leveraging the insights of queue psychology, you can ensure that your customers' user experience is a positive one.
The psychology of queuing revealed in 6 simple rules
1. Unoccupied time feels longer than occupied time
2. People want to get started
3. Uncertain waits are longer than known, finite waits
4. Unexplained waits are longer than explained waits
5. Unfair waits are longer than fair waits
6. Anxiety makes waits feel longer


Mindmapping
Synthesize and evaluate ideas and refine project goal based on insights from the ideation session.
