Multidisciplinary teams➤ Offering Managers, Designers, and

Developers

➤ Distributed around the world

➤ Work as one team

➤ Empathize with user’s, not ourselves

Teaming and action➤ Work face-to-face➤ Respect the expertise of others and

their contributions; breakdown hierarchy➤ Build trust and be accountable to each

other; co-own➤ Establish a clear vision that everyone

understands

Watch out for these pitfalls➤ Not understanding or respecting

everyone’s role and contributions➤ Shifting direction based on one person’s

opinion➤ Lack of transparency between decision

makers and creators

➤ Know the outcomes and carry them around with you

➤ Small teams that own the success of each outcome

Pulling it all together
