Katie Lukes brings nearly three decades of product research and strategy experience to Innovatemap. As VP, Product Strategy & Research, she helps teams make informed choices grounded in evidence and aligned to business goals.

Katie turns ambiguity into clarity by naming what’s known, what’s assumed, and what needs to be learned. She runs the right research at the right time, translates results into clear takeaways, and connects them to practical product choices. She maps user needs to business priorities, surfaces risks, and sets decision criteria so teams can move forward with confidence.

People rely on Katie to focus decisions and build momentum. With her, you leave with shared understanding, a clear why behind the plan, and the next right step backed by actionable insights.
