Peter on the panel, advocating tetris for teams
by Kate RutterWe’re ending Day One of UX Week, and the conversations just get more and more interesting. On the day-end panel, Peter, Andrew, Kevin and Liz talked about skills for current and future practitioners. Peter mentioned the “t-shaped person” (folks with shallow skills across multiple areas and deep skills in one area). Then he went on to talk about “i”s and “bar”s as an extended concept.
What struck me was Peter’s comment about how team design is critical…having the right people work with the right team on the project. I can imagine that selecting a great team in a “t”, “i” and “bar” world is like playing Tetris.
