Efficiency
Find faster, better ways to communicate.
A well organised meeting or a concise email can often achieve more than hours spent perfecting a presentation.
Focus
Titles like UX/UI, product design, interaction, usability expert, design strategist, CX designer or UX design matter less than the actual work.
Focus on solving the user and business problems with the right tools and methods. Sometimes, a “design tool” is just a productive meeting.
Empathy
Your colleagues have lives outside work. Approach every interaction with kindness and assume best intentions. Not everyday is someones best day.
Clarity
Ensure everyone understands the user and business problem being solved. Success hinges on understanding and educating.
Adaptability
Design tools come and go - Figma, Flash, Dreamweaver...
What remains constant is the importance of effectively communicating with stakeholders, being open to new technology, innovation and what may seem like a crazy idea at the time.
Specialisation
Specialise in your passion and excel at it. You shouldn't have to be a unicorn, it is merely a nice to have.
The push for designers to do it all stems from business misunderstandings and greed to have an agency service provided by one person.
Presence
Claim a space for design at the decision making table. Our work is crucial, and if it could be done without us, it would be. Demand respect and recognition for the value that design brings.
Collaboration
Engineering, design, and product should collaborate daily, even for a quick five minute check in.
Humility
We are all replaceable. Stay humble and grateful for your opportunities.
Work Life Balance
Take your holidays, don’t skip lunch. The business will survive without you for a moment, while you recharge and come back with fresh perspectives, new experiences and motivation.
Transparency
Nurture a culture of transparency and honesty.
When people are left in the dark, they speculate, which is counterproductive.
Networking
Maintain your professional network.
Opportunities to help and be helped are invaluable.
