UX Coaching & Mentoring

For UX Leaders

I’ve managed teams of UX researchers and designers, and heads of UX. I’ve had to hire the right people, design the processes and workflows, and keep the team motivated to deliver top-quality user research and design. If you’d like to know more about my background, check out my LinkedIn profile.

If you need support from an experienced UX Director with any of the following, get in touch and we can chat more your needs:

• Resolving team conflict
• Uniting a team behind a single vision 
• Defining design principles 
• Designing user research sessions
• Stakeholder management and mapping
• Influencing Culture change
• Sharing customer insights throughout your organisation 
• Hiring process
• Team structure 
• Performance improvement plans
• Personal development plans
• Skills matrix and development pathways
• Influencing others
• Product management support from idea to deployment
• Design a UX strategy

My preferred approach would be to work with you on your leadership challenges as well as work directly with members of your team. I believe this is where I can have the most impact.

For UX Practitioners

Are you in a UX role and need support and guidance from someone highly experienced?

I’ve coached and mentored UX Designers and UX Researchers from their very first entry-level roles through to Senior Leadership positions. I’ve hired and developed UX practitioners for over 14 years and I’ve been a mentor for the UXPA UK for 3 years. If you’d like to know more about my background, check out my LinkedIn profile.

Here are some of the common issues I can help with:

• Making decisions about your career path

• Suggested reading and training
• How to convince your organisation to allow you to do more UX research
