Any tips for building close relationships with PMD’s? About to hit my 2 year anniversary at Deloitte (A -> C), but my entire project’s account is located in another state, so it’s been tough to stay close to any PMD let alone build a relationship with them to back me up when it’s time to apply to GSAP next March

Schedule monthly or quarterly 1-1 check ins with your PMDs. They can be virtual. The PMDs who supported me were from my firm initiatives so you can also look outside of your account. You don’t need a “close” relationship. You just need someone who knows the impact you have made for them.

Hi friends! I’m looking for resources to help me be successful in a “Functional Lead” role.

The role is in FinTech
I’m responsible for strategy, comms and key partnerships for a bank product. It reports through Customer Experience but touches product, Ops. marketing. It’s basically a Project Manager role but more nuanced.

Anyone out there in a role like this? Any books. videos or even best practices to share?

Recent career-switcher here. While I’m a veteran with the ad process, I am new to the UX agile process. Is it normal to not use briefs whatsoever? Is it normal for the UX research lead to have a stakeholder workshop (sans designers) to think of concept “thought starters,” then have a separate meeting with the UX design lead to vote on which 1 of 3 concepts to proceed with? In advertising, this is analogous to the client and researchers doing the campaign idea then telling the CD to execute it.
