Got promoted last week - I’m no longer the ambiguous ‘Director of User Experience’ but a full-fledged Creative Director. It’s a pretty cool feeling - since college, I knew that if I were going to bite the bullet and work for someone else, this would be the kind of position I’d want.
Whatever creative faculties I possess will have to wait to be flexed temporarily, however - the downside of being a growing company with an ever increasing client base is that someone has to produce all that work - and I’m now the lucky gent managing the guys who make that happen. The fact that they’re able to create over 200 sites a year is pretty amazing stuff - my job is to make that process even more efficient, and to push the proverbial envelope of what we do even further. A pretty daunting task - but I’ve never been one to back down from a challenge. We’ll see what happens.
As an aside - if you’re an amazing designer looking to add some unversity clients to your portfolio, feel free to email me at sean DOT johnson AT gmail DOT com. As the great Tom Peters says, it’s always the right time to look for great talent.
