This paper outlines the challenges of conducting qualitative research in the aftermath of a national tragedy. As the circumstances in which the research was conducted was traumatic for all involved, intense emotion work was required, especially in the recruitment of participants and moderation of discussions. The paper demonstrates that conducting research on subjects that are socially and culturally sensitive in nature can be emotionally demanding for a researcher, and may have a powerful personal impact on them as individuals. We bring to light how emotional skills become central in such studies and are as important as the intellectual and cognitive skills utilised - if not more. Qualitative researchers need to be resilient in not only managing the emotions of participants in a study, but also at managing the emotions of other stakeholders along with their own emotions.
Based on the insights from two customers in India, the innovative UI design for improving new customer registration was first launched in India. As a result, we witnessed a 6% increase in new account creation, which in itself is a big win given the Indian population. In the following months, the same design was adopted by the worldwide team, and was launched across all marketplaces. This resulted in 10s of Million$ win worldwide to Amazon. More importantly, it drove comfort with the idea that even qualitative research in India can deliver gains as big as big data worldwide.

Talking about one's sexuality, across cultures, has always been considered a private affair. This can be particularly true when one is LGBTQ, given that acceptance of LGBTQ persons is a relatively new phenomenon in most countries, and Mexico - a country with traditionally rigid gender and sexuality roles - is no exception. In recent years, however, Mexico has been progressive in its efforts to combat discrimination and hate crimes on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. A recent study by political scientist Caroline Beer concludes that Mexico is more progressive than the US when it comes to LGBTQ rights, especially in the recognition of same-sex relationships.
