Ever heard someone say "Stop drinking the Kool-aid?" This metaphoric statement refers to a tragic event in American history where people either blindly or through coercion ingested something self-detrimental. Figuratively, the same thing is happening en masse in today's UX community. In this episode, Darren highlights several happenings and mindsets reflective of drinking the proverbial Kool-aid, challenging people to rise above this destructive trend and practice in UX.#ux#podcasts#cxofmradio#cxofm#realuxtalk#worldofux#worldoux#uxpotpourri#koolaid#uxkoolaidCheck out the new World of UX website at https://www.worldoux.com.

It has been said that the years a UX professional spends at one company is like "dog years." In other words, there is a 7:1 ratio between the years of a dog's life compared to that of a human. This puts a completely different spin on the assumptions made about an employee's short stints. This week, Darren takes time to demystify several of the factors associated with one's length of time at a company — focusing on the perspectives of those seeking work as well as hiring managers and hiring teams.
