Whether you came from a team to join as the first designer or you just started a company and wanted to built human-centred products, this is the book for you!! Leah really resonates with your situation and she shares hacks, I call them hacks because they really bridge that gap within a short time, that will see you creating a cadence of always being closer to your customers!

Short and to-the-point introductory read for UX design. I wanted to review this book as a possible recommendation for design students and was not disappointed. If you’re at all experienced in UX design you’ll find the book to be a light read of familiar or even habitual information and processes. But if you’re inexperienced in the world of product design, this can be a great introduction.

A collection of simple and quick UX strategies for UX designers in organizations with little focus on user experience design. Much of it self-explanatory from my perspective and many UX strategies have a much more "quick-and-dirty" approach than what can be found in other books (which is not necessarily  bad). Had to force myself to finish this, might be written for someone else.

A practical book that I wish I would have read a long time ago, before organizational leadership books. A great “guardrails” book and a playbook to be enacted. It not only advises where to start, it also goes into detail about the tools and exercises that are most helpful as a UX practitioner. Even though I am ahead on many of the suggestions in this book (I painstakingly figured these out on my own at a slow and steady pace) I  did walk away better equipped with some new ideas, more confident with my team’s work, and more excited about the future of our department.
