Yep, we’ve launched a new website. On our site you’ll find information on services of DesignOps, Design Coaching + Mentoring, & Design Workshops. More updates to come but let us know if you find any technical issues or even typos.
Happy sixth birthday to us! Special thanks to all of our clients who have made these last six years wonderful.
Six years ago today I registered @craftandrigor & it’s been an incredible journey. I want to thank Craft & Rigor’s 1,232 clients who have had faith in my experience & ability to guide them in their design careers & help advise their businesses.

Today we're happy to announce several services we've added to the @craftandrigor lineup. Craft & Rigor is run by @nickf & offers coaching + mentoring to individuals & teams, as well as advising businesses on design from an operations standpoint. This thread will cover what's new.
For all of the services mentioned you can book your sessions on my website: nickfinck.com/mentoring.html
If you're interested in coaching + mentoring for your team or are looking for someone to advice your business on design from a operational level visit: craftandrigor.com
Today we’re adding mock portfolio presentations to our existing coaching+mentoring services. If you would like @nickf to watch you present your portfolio as you’d do in an interview & provide you with detailed feedback, you can book a session here: calendly.com/craftandrigor/m…
We’ve set up a Slack workspace for all of our current & past clients. It’s a free extension of our coaching+mentor service. It is a place to ask questions & get advice. If you have had a coaching+mentoring session with @nickf but did not receive an invite please let us know.

Ramp-up can take 1-2 years but retention of a designer can be as short as 1 year, w/ many leaving because of lack of opportunities to grow. Coaching+mentoring can help strengthen & grow your talent. I coach+mentor design teams. Want to retain your talent?

Still worth restating today:
“As UX professionals the boundaries of our work does not end at the edges of the screen."
