Welcome to Leaders of Awesomeness
A lively community of UX leaders, designers, researchers, and writers from all over the world.
What is Leaders of Awesomeness?
Hosted by Center Centre – UIE's Jared Spool and Dr. Leslie Jensen-Inman.
Dr. Leslie Jensen-Inman, Jared Spool, and the team at Center Centre – UIE launched Leaders of Awesomeness, an online community of more than 39,000 UX design, research, and content leaders.
Join our community to connect with UX leaders all over the world around the challenges and success you’re having to deliver better design in your organization. You can learn from our curated resources on everything UX to help you tackle those challenges and share advice, techniques, and knowledge with our global community.
Who is a UX leader?
If you’re here, you’re probably a leader.
A UX leader is different from a UX manager. A UX leader is not an appointed position. Anyone can become a UX leader; all it takes is a follower, a simple vision of where you want the UX in your company to be, and the drive to get it to that point.
If you are a UX leader, join our Leaders of Awesomeness community today.
In the community, you’ll find regularly hosted…
