Diversity and Inclusion

Inclusivity: Talking Up in UX by Jeremy Bailey

I've been in the digital industry for over 10 years and have worked across small and large charities, as well as my own freelance projects. I am now Director of Digital at the sector leading creative agency William Joseph. 

Having been at Cancer Research UK for the last four years, I have been able to work on high volume, high profile campaigns such as Race for Life, Dryathlon and the much-quoted #nomakeupselfie. 

In that time I helped drive forward the charity’s digital product and marketing capabilities to be some of the most respected and successful in the sector. 

I'm always excited to work with other organisations, share expertise and swap cat gifs. Give me a shout!

Product Management Process

System Thinking for Product Managers by Johanna Kollmann

I'm a product leader with background in product management, experience strategy, and digital innovation. I've got lots of consulting experience (ThoughtWorks, AWS), and have worked in staff teams too (Amazon). I spent a while understanding Design Thinking, Lean, and Agile, and wrote a book with the same name to share what I'd learned (O'Reilly, 2017). Read my monthly newsletter—it's good!
