Building a product and ux practice
As the VP of Product and User Experience at MillerKnoll, I’ve been able to grow what was previously a launch-and-abandon-type project organization to a successful product-led structure. I’ve grown a group of eleven vaguely-product-oriented folks to a team of 50+ product managers, analysts, designers, UX strategists and researchers.
One key to our success is weekly alignment on our product philosophy and strategy through our practice-area stand-up. They all have daily stand-ups with their product teams to talk about tactical work, but our weekly stand-up as a product or UX practice area is where we dive into frameworks, learnings, and thought leadership.
I’m cataloging some of our stand-up topics to share with other product-led organizations, in the hopes that you also have meaningful conversations that unlock new levels of growth and effectiveness.
