| 05 Dec 2022 | 09: A design driven process | 00:42:33 | |
How designers work in the tech industry is largely driven by a ubiquitous tech culture—so much so that the expectations of designers across different companies seem to blend into each other. However, even with a largely uniform set of tenets and behaviors that designers adhere to, the role of design in driving product decisions is something a lot of junior designers either feel uncomfortable doing or simply haven’t been exposed to. In this episode, Jon and Bill chat about ways that designers can push things forward with the simplest tools of the trade.
