Gösta Åbergh
I’m a Senior Product Designer with a background in design management and leadership. Over the years, I’ve worked on diverse projects, balancing creativity with strategic thinking to create impactful user experiences.
I’ve naturally moved into leadership roles, where I guide and mentor teams while keeping my passion for design at the core.
I want to create an environment where my colleagues can truly blossom and believe in empowering each team member by recognizing their unique strengths and providing them with the support, resources, and opportunities they need to thrive. My approach is to actively listen, offer guidance, and encourage growth through continuous learning and development.
I’ve always loved creativity and challenges, which is why I dream of creating my own board game—something that brings people together for fun and strategy. I’m also pretty great at bordshockey, enjoying the fast-paced mechanics it offers. A unique part of my journey is learning Czech just so I could study at FAMU, the top film school in Prague. It wasn’t easy, but it opened up incredible opportunities and deepened my love for film. These experiences reflect my blend of creativity, competitiveness, and determination to pursue my passions.

Customer Service – Support
In designing the Customer Service support pages, our primary objective was to empower customers to easily access pertinent information, enabling them to resolve their issues effectively.
Through user testing, we gleaned insights indicating that customers sought personalized avenues to locate information, whether through browsing, reading, or contacting Customer Service directly. Our aim was to accommodate these varied preferences and enhance the accessibility of our support platform accordingly with easy navigation.

Purchase flow – Broadband
Procuring a broadband product presented numerous challenges, including displaying prices and products to ineligible customers and difficulties in comparing different options, resulting in significant drop-offs. As a designer, I recognized the imperative of simplicity and the pivotal role of providing a clear overview.
This understanding influenced the design choices, such as ensuring pricing transparency and presenting all available price plans within easy reach. Consequently, the redesign yielded a remarkable 24% increase in online broadband sales revenue.

Campaign – Com Hem Tv Hub
Upon the launch of our totally new TV box, we encountered the imperative to communicate its benefits to our customers in a compelling manner.
This TV hub represented a significant leap forward in the market compared to its predecessor; TiVo. However, it was missing a key feature that many of our customers cherished: the ability to record their favorite shows.
My challenge extended beyond merely promoting this innovative smart TV box; I also aimed to shift our customers’ viewing habits. Despite this hurdle, the launch proved to be a resounding success, with and outcome of a great 369 units sold within the first five days online only thanks to this design work.

E-care
Combining the tech stacks of Com Hem and Tele2 presented technical hurdles, but the real challenge was melding their brand identities into a cohesive Tele2 experience. It needed to be familiar to existing customers yet enticing to new ones, all in record time. Collaboration was key, ensuring that technical integration and brand messaging aligned seamlessly. This approach allowed us to navigate complexities, preserve brand essence, and deliver a fresh, unified offering swiftly and successfully.

The task extended beyond rebranding the existing Tele2 app; it involved seamlessly integrating additional Com Hem products. My aim was to enhance visuals for our primary Tele2 customer base, enticing them to explore additional offerings while conveying the competitive telecom landscape. User testing was not just beneficial, but imperative, ensuring our strategy aligned perfectly with customer needs and industry demands.

Nordic Outdoor Adventures
Mobile Application
My redesign of the Nordic Outdoor Adventure app focused on improving both usability and visual appeal. I revamped the Information Architecture for easier navigation, reduced cognitive load by grouping related information, and simplified the color palette to enhance user focus. These efforts resulted in a more intuitive and engaging experience, encouraging users to explore and enjoy outdoor activities.
