What does planning mean for user researchers? it's not really about excel charts and timeline but rather something much bigger. My talk on planning research is now online @JoinLearners: joinlearners.com/talk/planni… #uxdesign #uxresearch

I wrote this for @NiemanLab ’s predictions for journalism 23 on the long flight to Europe about a week ago. I had no idea Musk would oust journalists from the platform a week later. It calls for news institutions to leave Twitter en masse and is titled: niemanlab.org/2022/12/platfo…

"The best researchers I've worked with know how to tell the future...They foresee what their team will need to know...If we only focus on immediate asks, then our impact will always be limited...As you head into Q3 planning, I encourage you all to be brave." @razsc #goodresearch – at Brooklyn, NY
