Channel: AJ&Smart
Date: 2020-08-11

You could have the most talented UX design team in the world, stay on top of all the latest UX trends, and master all of the UX design tech skills, BUT…. if you (and your team) don’t learn this ONE skill, you’re DOOMED to design by committee, waste of time (and money) and job dread 🤮

Can you guess what this skill is?? Hint: it has helped AJ&Smart make the jump from an average UX agency to one of the top product design studios in the world and has literally made us MILLIONS 🤑

This is an excerpt of the Design Life podcast, hosted by Charli Prangley and Femke van Schoonhoven, featuring a guest appearance by Jonathan Courtney, the CEO of AJ&Smart. In this episode, Jonathan, Femke and Charli talk about developing this essential skill, getting your team onboard with it, and how exactly to apply it to one’s career.
