Quotes

"We put product managers at the center to map what they see, say, do, and also think and feel based on our collective experiences."

"If you put yourself between the C-suite and the product teams, you become a bottleneck with no time for actual leadership."

"Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth, said Mike Tyson."

"That table at the top where product strategy happens is wonky AF—it's different everywhere and influenced by politics and people's experiences."

"UX really doesn’t have a seat at the table yet and that has some implications for us."

"Product designers I have worked with have experience deeply grounded in standards like NIST, ISO, IEEE, and HL7 for healthcare."

"At best, user experience and product management work together in a healthy tension."

"Sometimes it’s reasonable to consider your design as strategy and ship a piece now and other pieces later."

"I try as a product manager to involve them in those UX practices as often as possible."

"If it’s not usable it’s not valuable."

"Don’t get stuck in the refinement stage too early."

"You only have agency over what you can execute on, so your ability to influence strategy depends on your expertise."

"Design ends up getting pulled in super late, and you get put in the uncomfortable position of pushing back and potentially slowing down a release."

"UXPin is a full-stack platform that bridges the gap between design and development disciplines."

"Work gets done through our relationships, and that becomes more true the higher you go in your career."

"Research was completely evaluative and tactical, positioned as serving design by validating wireframes and high fidelity prototypes."

"Product managers carry a lot of pressure and accountability without a lot of ability to force people to do anything."

"When we say if only I could get that executive to think differently, we’re actually giving them power over us."

"I feel a lot of pain and anxiety in the community people wondering, you know is our seat at the table slipping away."

"This is not a pay for play conference in any stretch — sponsors understand the importance of curation and merit."
