Design Systems revolve around the core concept of components—the fundamental, reusable building blocks such as buttons, cards, date pickers, and tables. These components are pivotal in design and code implementation and must be meticulously documented for repeated use.

As designers, we need to ask these important questions: What defines a 'good' component? How do we collaborate with developers to craft and document these components? Working on components transcends traditional UX design and demands cohesiveness, not only for seamless user experiences but also for the usability of designers and developers alike.

In this Master Class webinar, Henry Daggett, Design System Lead at Societe Generale, will share practical insights on how to work successfully with components, from how to choose which components to build to how to document them (with a bit of ChatGPT help) and hand them over to developers.

You’ll learn:

• Which components to build.
• How to gather and organize features into options, states and edge cases.
• How to design excellent, easy-to-reuse components in Figma.
• How to work with developers to build your designs.
• How to write clear documentation, assisted by ChatGPT.

Join this webinar to learn how to work with design components, from selection and Figma design to documentation and developer handoff. Ensure your designs enhance user experiences and streamline collaboration between designers and developers.

When we contemplate accessibility, our minds often gravitate toward familiar considerations—such as color contrast, legible font sizes, and mobile tap targets. However, inclusive design transcends these apparent essentials, aspiring to craft accessible and inclusive experiences for all. Navigating the intricacies of inclusive design poses challenges, and it is crucial to discern and implement the right design choices early on to avert potential issues down the line.

For years the field of UX has focused on methods, methodologies, techniques, artifacts, and deliverables. We have learned, however, that truly successful UX is not just about the work. The ability to interact, relate, and exchange with team members, stakeholders, clients, and leadership has proven to be even more important in some cases. For these reasons, the importance of soft skills (and more specifically, emotional intelligence or EQ) has become increasingly critical.

You'll learn:

• The challenges and issues EQ can help you overcome as a UX professional.
• How EQ can impact your projects.
• How EQ helps optimize relationships with stakeholders and teammates.
• The benefits EQ in personal and professional growth.
• Key EQ red flags that serve as identifiers for self growth or in one's teams.

You’ll leave this Master Class with a sound understanding of EQ, its role in UX and and its importance to practitioners and the discipline-at-large.
