Respect for Design - with Scott Zimmer - Part 1
Manage episode 402191740 series 3478184
On building respect for designers in an organization, with our guest Scott Zimmer.
In this guest episode, Juli and Scott hiked the Buda Hills and talked about hiring designers, giving them a seat at the table, and building a culture that respects design.
The path we took:
- Making connections over a Medium article;
- Building design teams and the dangers of naive hiring;
- Entrepreneurship as a creative output;
- How a culture that respects design can look like;
- Designers getting a seat at the table, and going from receivers to influencers of decisions;
- The importance of apprenticeship and mentorship in designer careers;
- And treating designers as a partner, not a resource.
