8: Build a seat at the table for UX The Designer's Toolkit

    • Design

How do you build a seat at the table for UX design? What do you do when other disciplines you work with disagree with you? Design is a very specific skill set that doesn't overlap in responsibility with a lot of other disciplines. As a result, your partners may have preconceived notions of what UX does that will affect how your work is defined.

In this episode, Jessica and Maya chat about how to navigate those gaps between what you do and what others think you do. We'll share why it's important to educate others on the design process, ask questions, and create balance in a design role for a sustainable career.
