Really excited about doing a #Community themed UX talk at #UXScotland tomorrow 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿.

🧑🏽‍💻 I’ll be writing it up after the event, so keep an eye out for post with the fully intended tongue-in-cheek title:

“With Great Community, Comes Great Responsibility”

So I'm starting to line up the talks this year.

The next one will be at "Hey! All Day" in Leeds, on Thursday 1 May.
I'll be doing a lightning version of my new talk on community ethics:

With Great Community Comes Great Responsibility 😜

Had the pleasure of doing a talk with @calvinlau.bsky.social for #ContentClub earlier this week.

We talked about spreading content design skills across our team, to enable Calvin to focus on the areas where his expertise can deliver the most value.

Caught up with the fab @cathydutton.bsky.social, for the first time in ages today.

It’s always great to see a talented practitioner step up into the Senior Civil Service. Gives me a bit of hope when you see some of the good ones make it through.
