While resilience isnāt something that can be taught, as leaders we can learn to read the signals and situations in which being conscious of our emotional state better equips us to deal with the everyday challenges of leadership.

Is leadership a title? Something we are bestowed to recognise seniority? A badge declaring hierarchy in a power-based org structure. Or is it more about how we show up as individuals and the behaviours we demonstrate, that exhibit the qualities of leadership.

A growth plan is a contracting between design manager and line report. Here, the key is removing the vagueness and subjectivity of development discussions. Instead, ensuring that progression is a systematic process that is explicit, observable and actionable.

Consistency creates an opportunity to shift the relative focus of our design efforts. Where time and creativity come at a premium, we trade the inputs and outputs that can be reasonably commoditised for higher order problem-solving; creating a space for innovation.

As leaders, we should consider ourselves as conduits for context, where this (context) is a prerequisite to enabling teams to do their best work; reducing - to the best of our ability - systemic and organisational ambiguity.

Product Thinking, in a #design context, is both a mindset and approach that seeks to create a bridge between what a segment of a market is trying to achieve, in a given situation (the JTBD), and the offering you provide in response to this demand (your value proposition).

Over time and with experience #designers learn to master the art of using fidelity with intent, moving beyond the mere versioning of our creative process, but rather leveraging fidelity as one of our most powerful tools for creating confidence and clarity.

Increasing your influence and impact isnāt a function of management, itās a function of seniority. Whether seniority comes by virtue of craft, people or product, the common denominator is how you scale impact through influence, in order to to be a force multiplier. #ux

A design org is an evolving sub-system that adapts over time to support various networks (topologies), within a given company, at a given scale, and subject to relative maturity.

Design is all about intent; specifically, the act of problem-solving within given constraints.
By contrast, artistry is a subjective portrayal of our unbounded creativity.
We are both artists, driven by self-expression, and problem-solvers who enable human outcomes.
