Scaling a Design Team: Insights from interviewing the world's top design lead...Sagi Shrieber
Presented at:
* 'The New Designer' Conference in Tel Aviv, Israel, June 2017
* The Hacking UI Meetup in San Francisco August 2016
When I was told I needed to start building a design team - I didn't know what to do. I never managed before.
So I looked for a shortcut, some way for me to create an accelerated learning for managing designers.
I decided I will interview the top design managers in the world, and learn from their experience. That became the first season of the Hacking UI Podcast (http://hackingui.com/podcast).
Almost two years of experience managing designers, 9 interviews, and one professional panel later, I am here to tell you all about the insights, lessons learned, and methodologies that I successfully implemented into my way of thinking and managing.
From interviewing the world's top design managers for the Hacking UI Podcast.

These insights are from our talks with the following design leaders:
- Billy Kiely - VP Product at Invision
- Melissa Hajj - Design Manager at Facebook
- Emmet Connolly - Director of Design at Intercom
- Joel Califa - Design Manager at Digital Ocean
- Magera Moon - Design Manager at Etsy
- Bob Baxley - Former Director of Design at Apple, (was also at Pinterest and Yahoo)
- Katie Dill - Director of Experience Design at Airbnb
- Jon Lax - Director of Product Design at Facebook
- and more..
Heads up: Most of them are common sense - but they are way harder to actually practice and implement into your habits.
A Practical Guide for Startups.
Presented at True University, June 12, 2012.
The first half of the presentation covers how to hire a designer at a startup. The slides are fairly sparse, so read more on designstaff.org

The most important question to ask on the job is not "What am I getting?" The most important question to ask on the job is "What am I becoming?"
