Hey 👋 
 
I've been incredibly excited about something lately, and I can't wait to share it with you.

Recently, there has been a lot of buzz around a design concept known as 'Growth Design'. 

It caught my attention during a talk with Intercom's VP, Emmet Connolly - (https://lnkd.in/eCuC9k7s), where he brilliantly described it as the fusion of design and business, and the future of design.

And it sounds a lot like what he was describing was... Growth Design.

So like any good designer, I decided to investigate and see what I could learn from this emerging field. 
 
I stumbled across a few Growth Designers already, designers who have been pushing the boundaries of the field forward such as Kate Syuma, Oscar Torres, Lex Roman and Elena Verna. 🔥
 
Check out their profiles and content.

To start, I binge-listened to Growthmates - a podcast hosted by Kate Syuma and Oscar Torres. I remember a specific episode where they interviewed Lex Roman -
 
'I had changed buttons out for people and redesigned landing pages that were never gonna launch. And I had done prototypes for companies that were just internal, and I had done that for years. And once I got a taste of what it feels like to actually achieve a goal, I was like, I can't make UI for UI's sake anymore. " 
 
Lex had described exactly how I was feeling and had put a name to it.
---
 
You might have noticed the change in my title already 😁 
 
That's because... 
 
I'm committing myself to 30 days of learning about Growth,
 
And sharing my learning with those of you who want to come along with me. 📚🤝
