The most underrated partnership in a product organization is the power that comes from bringing the DATA and the UX RESEARCH team together to validate problems and identify opportunities.

@bitoasis could you please tell your product designers to get their foot off the gas redesigning the pro section in the app over and over! ..I got used to a specific reading & trading patterns and it’s hard to re-adapt this frequently for no apparent benefit!

@chrisvthoms I think a full stack UX Designer isn’t referring to their actual job or role, but rather what they should be good at. Great UX Designers should be business savvy with the ability to define business value and ROIs, in addition to being tech savvy, good researcher, good IA ..etc

@swissmiss Better than I deserve 🙏

[Robert Zikry @robertzikry]

Product design can be boiled down to one thing, communication.
Communication is almost always done using text.
Text can only be effective with proper typography and UX copy.
So, unless you have a solid type design and a UX writer in the team, you’ll always have a poor product.

@Shutterstock I've been trying to contact your call center, call you directly, email you, and yet, nothing goes through! I'm a disappointed customer and I need a response.

Finally found the perfect elevator pitch when someone asks about what I do as a UX designer! ... Thanks, @goldenkrishna, and @boagworld for sharing 🙌

[Paul Boag @boagworld]

This is a nice definition of user experience designer.

Ever wondered why apps and websites are all starting to look and feel the same? .. @asallen has perfectly touched a nerve with this great article on why the digital design industry has become so boring at the moment!

@mfaizanatiq @ux_UAE No worries. I believe the recording will be up shortly.

[Robert Zikry @robertzikry]

@TheEmilX @katral @ux_UAE Yeah, sadly this is still happening in many companies in the region. But what they are missing is that good Design is more than the visual part of it, there are many layers to it and if they want to be competitive they need to invest in more than just the UI.
