With remote and hybrid work now the norm, I think well-run workshops, team days and simply good vibes matter more than ever. They’re how a team gets excited, motivated and confident about the work. Bringing people together is something I’ve been told is one of my strengths.
Product principles I designed for the team.
A design meet-up I organised.
A wall review: the whole journey printed out, with everyone adding notes.
Walking the team through the work at the wall.
Sketching together, and a warm-up that ended with sticky notes on our backs.
A workshop with the wider team, worksheets everywhere.
I ran a team day at Christmas (with the help of our content and principle designer). I made the hats on my sewing machine.
Everyone who leaves the team gets their own cover.
