Are you advocating for yourself in your current position, and in your career? How are you “managing up”? Is Management for you? How do you run your team with both authenticity and effectiveness? What makes a really great 1×1? In this talk, you’ll gain access to the best practices from one of our local veteran UX leaders – Alison Gretz, ACC.
