Building the plane while flying: Scaling UX within high-growth organizations

What do we really mean by scaling UX? Is it just about headcount? Can’t we just throw more bodies on the problem? Well as you can imagine, it’s not that simple. Just like great UX, there’s way more than meets the eye when it comes to designing organizations and scaling teams.
 
Susan will share her experience in scaling the impact of UX while playing catch up to the growth of product management and engineering. She’ll focus on people, processes, and tools as necessary elements to scale effectively.
