This is a fantastic time to join a *fast* growing and incredibly ambitious startup as a designer.

@gordonbaty is looking for people who are terrific problem-solvers and craftspeople to form the early design team at Vanta

@jboogie As a design leader in a SAFe company, a big frustration was the absence of designers and common practices like design systems in the framework, while other functions and their operations are defined in detail.

Taking inspiration from board games, I’d like to add an expansion for UX to the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) - what do you think? https://t.co/9sGLYxKtgR https://t.co/1AlIdFIOH5

Designers generally recognize that “user” is a problematic word. Here’s a nice take on reframing them as “members” https://t.co/GYRjHMclnc

@steveportigal Somewhat related, isn’t “open the kimono” culturally inappropriate? I hear that a lot in the tech world.

[Gordon Baty @gordonbaty]

@steveportigal I have only heard it in the last year or so, took it to be old school sales talk. People seem to think it’s witty and spicy. I pointed out that it was vile. It’s important to call it out.

[Gordon Baty @gordonbaty]

@gilescolborne Hey Giles, I’ve been in SAFe for a couple of years. From a broader view I have lots of good things to say about it breaking down siloes and getting people to suddenly adopt a lot of established best practices. Too bad it’s oblivious to how the whole world is using UX tho!

Sorry but no-business-plans is as one dimensional as rewarding failure. Just don’t put the plan on a pedestal. http://t.co/9Pt1hAEL9x
