Not a design leader, but a leader in design. Running my own studio for 20+ years. I tweet about design as a craft and a business.

I'm starting a weekly open office session. Come on in for a free virtual design review. We can talk strategy, process, UX and UI. No strings attached.
Book your session here: emblematiq.com/lab/
Your first 90 days as a design leader will define the next 900.
I created a free guide to help you get it right, especially if you're stepping into leadership for the first time (or mentoring someone who is).

Will these very public and apparently nonsensical #layoffs make people think twice before joining those companies in the future? It would certainly give me pause.
So @amazon is cancelling #AmazonSmile because:
"the program has not grown to create the impact that we had originally hoped"
What a bunch of BS.
$400M looks like quite an impact to me.

This is amazing:
