Design strategy is vague and difficult work. But if you take the time to understand the strategic layer, it can be a whole new way to lead…and you don’t need to become a manager to do it.
If you feel stuck delivering endlessly on a roadmap you can’t control, design strategy offers ways to get ahead and influence which ideas get built and which don’t. This talk will give a whole new way to guide teams through principles and insight, not just pixels.
Learning UX strategy is the perfect way to try out leadership. And it’s the ideal way to stand out from the average designer. Become a designer of strategy, not just interfaces.
This talk includes
3 principles for leading strategy with your design skills
When to align to a strategy vs. design a new one
Strategy methods that promote leadership
Professional development tips for aspiring UX strategists
Who should join
UX Designers that want to influence what gets designed
Product Designers that deliver endless roadmaps without strategic direction
Strategic Designers that want to learn new methods
UX Leads that want to use strategy to drive impact in their organization
UX managers want to coordinate their team's actions through strategy

Jeff Humble
Hi, I’m Jeff! I love designing learning experiences where people explore new concepts. I’ve worked as a UX, UI, and product designer at startups for over ten years. I helped establish the UX strategy at CareerFoundry during my time as Head of Design, and I’m excited to share what I’ve learned teaching strategy at the Fountain Institute.

“That was a great talk!”
“Very professionally done: good pace, lots of usable tips, staying on topic. Once I have some education budget to spend at my new job, I'll be signing up for one of your workshop courses :) (Side note: I watched a live seminar from AJ & Smart earlier this week, and it was RUBBISH compared to yours today. Keep up the great work!)”
