ABSTRACT: Digital products are more complex today than ever before. Creating them requires multiple team members and other stakeholders. Design work is not something that can happen in isolation, and how effectively we manage others' contributions can help us make or break a design. I’ll share some of the things I have learned from past mistakes on how to shape better conversations around design work. BIO: I'm Nicole Nardelli, a product designer currently working at Moneyfarm, where I design digital experiences for financial products from my home in the middle of the mountains in Italy.
