Conversation: The Buzzwordification of UX (1 of ?)

Picture of a bumblebee about to land on a flower in close up.

Keith Instone and Serena Rosenhan both return to the show for an episode about what Tim Keirnan is calling the “buzzwordification” of UX. The last few years have seen a big rise in the use of UX terminology in the media and in our workplaces. What are the advantages and disadvantages for UX practitioners now that UX has become a popular term beyond colleges and professional societies? Tim moderates the round table discussion with Serena and Keith, and the wisdom pours out of those two veteran UX professionals.

The fireplace crackling gets a bit loud at points, but plying guests with food, drink, and fireplace ambience is part of our recording process. Rest assured the fire stayed in its place.

Note: Neither Serena nor Keith are speaking on behalf of their employers, past or present. Neither is Tim.

With a little luck, there will be more conversations on this topic in 2019 with other Design Critique alumni.
