The impact of any kind of #design team is always influenced by the organisational conditions in which the team operates. You can have the best designers in the world but if the company is not able to value them and their competences properly, their impact will be limited.

This is the key reason why the business impact of design is strongly related with the design maturity of the organisation.

Our driving philosophy is the belief that critiques should be motivating, not intimidating. Helpful, not discouraging. They should feel fun and be something designers look forward to.

Hiring is hard; hiring designers is even harder. Make it count by bringing in new talent and making sure they stay a while.

I've been thinking about speaking more about #ProductDesign and #DesignManagement again. Any good conferences or events that are looking for speakers? I have a couple of topics in my back pocket that I could bring.

Let’s concede the battle over the label #Agile and win the war of reinventing #management. https://www.forbes.com/sites/stevedenning/2022/12/04/why-agile-needs-to-take-over-management-itself/ #DesignStrategy #DesignManagement #ProjectManagement via ⁦#Forbes

Let’s raise awareness about how unprepared #designers are to understand and influence #strategy, advocate for a new role called #DesignStrategist, and propose a minimum set of skills required for becoming a Design Strategist #BillBuxton #BusinessDecisions #Collaboration #CriticalThinking #DesignDecisions #DesignEducation #DesignManagement #DesignSkills #Facilitation #ProblemFraming https://www.designative.info/2020/12/31/becoming-a-design-strategist/

I stepped away from frontend dev for the last couple of years, taking a spell as #DesignManagement which has been a great experience. I've recently moved back to #DesignEngineering though and I'm having a whale of a time doing what I love again and catching up on what I've missed in CSS (which is seems is 'a lot'). #css is my one true work love.

3/3

You will also find in it my own "Stories" of other explorers of the galaxy who are using new or unusual languages, narratives, and tools to design. Thanks again to Forensic Architecture, Superflux, and Thomas Thwaites for the collaboration and their incredible work.
