Making art could be, would be, even should be pointless. And that is the point.

The significance of art in refining the quality of your life; writing, drawing, making, creating is grossly under-rated in our current definition of success, where managing, leading, confirming has become the norm.

"Empathy roadshows" are an effective way to help your internal teams know each other, understand the work, and recognize the value. As leaders, your cross-functional partners are your first customers. Go get 'em.

From a recent @joincoho group session on “How to be an impactful design leader in 2023” we support our fellows steer their job, career, and calling.
"Learning to receive feedback with a certain graciousness requires thick skin, and it requires being able to receive feedback without letting it affect you personally." Chetana Deorah @tanadeo Sounds simple, doesn't it? But we all know that's easier said than done. Chetana's solution? Build your trusted board of directors. No, she's not talking about stuffy boardrooms and stern faces. This board is a group of mentors, coaches, and even team members who can offer insights into your blind spots. With over a decade of product innovation, growth, and leadership at companies like Netflix, she knows what she is talking about. So, who's on your board? If you don’t have a quick answer it's time to assemble your team. In the game of growth, you don't need cheerleaders; you need coaches, critics, and comrades. Watch the snippet and share this post if it resonates with you. #joincoho #leadership #feedback #mentorship #fellowship #community

So, here's the lowdown: 🚀 Product Dominance: Craft great products that make people pay attention. 🤝 Unleashing the Power of People: Create a collaborative environment where everyone's ideas shine and innovation takes center stage. 💰 Profitability as the Guiding Star: Harness the financial impact of design and use it as your secret weapon for success. 🔧 Mastery of Practice: Stay ahead of the game by embracing the latest design practices. 💡 Purposeful Impact: Every design decision you make should have a purpose. We're curious: What frameworks or strategies are you using to level up your leadership game? Watch this snippet and drop a comment below. #joincoho #design #leadership

The US should also start building safety nets now. All the jobs they told us we needed to go to college to avoid doing: 1. Are honorable and worthy of a decent wage 2. Would not pay you a living wage 3. Are the only ones not at risk of being automated by AI 🧵 8/9
