Always thrilled to spend time with Steve! Particularly interested to hear his perspective as one of the very few design leaders sitting on a public board. @bydisgn

I agree with @josephcohen, this is a dream job for someone looking to build and lead a team at a design forward company. And you'll be a part of the @GVDesignTeam family!
We're looking for someone to lead design at @onuniverse. I'm biased, but I think it's a dream job: workatuniverse.com/design-le… Invent breakthrough interfaces, shape a brand that represents a radically better internet, and build a new kind of design studio that lives online. 🌐

Devoted follower of Design Sprints? Been wanting to try one? The team has published a detailed how-to guide on taking Sprints remote. Includes great recommendations on tools, etc.

My teammate @mmargolis has compiled all of his research guidance for startups in one place. If you're just getting started or you're a veteran at research, there is gold in these articles!
I finally compiled our best articles about #UXresearch at startups. How to ask, listen, test ideas, de-risk, save time. No more excuses! library.gv.com/gv-guide-to-u… Thanks, @GVdesignteam past & present! @veeecho @katearonowitz @by_knb @dburka @jazer @kowitz @jakek #designsprint #UX

So proud of @alisonrosenthal on launching her 1st seed institutional fund @leadoutcapital -- oversubscribed at $27M to support "non-obvious" founders!

Last week I spoke at Fortune Brainstorm Design on one of the biggest issues we face as an industry - the overwhelming amount of design leadership positions that are sitting empty.

My latest baking project is perfecting a babka (while also eating many in the name of research). A dedicated babka bakery is opening this week in Palo Alto. 🤗🤗🤗
#PaloAlto now has its own babka bakery that opened today, serving not only classic flavors, but also special recipes for nutella, maple-pecan and more. bit.ly/2Ca3qun
