Karen Hawkins, accessible design practice lead at Level access and chair of the W3C ARRM group joins us to discuss accessibility and design systems.

Design systems can really help improve accessibility, but in reality design teams often don’t know their exact responsibilities, leading to accessibility gaps in implementation.

We talk about considering accessibility from the start, and in the fundamentals of design systems as well as the need for a culture of inclusivity where accessibility isx integrated into all aspects of an organisation.

“My personal perspective is that everyone should be accountable for the accessibility of their output, which means that you have a responsibility to test your own work.” – Karen Hawkins.

We chat about Headspace’s internal culture and how they manage being a healthy workplace as a health company. We also discussed the importance of measuring success by using human outcomes metrics, such as stress reduction and improved sleep, rather than traditional engagement metrics.

“What we have found is 10 minutes of meditation, three times a week, is like that perfect sort of sweet spot to measurably reduce someone’s stress. So those are the metrics we care about.” – Cal Thompson

Joel stresses the need for designers to communicate effectively with stakeholders, and we dip into some of the over 300 topics in Joel’s book in a little more detail.

“We we tend to imagine that other people should come to our design world, even though, ironically, the job of, you know, The UX people is to understand other people’s worlds and for us to go there.” – Joel Marsh

Among the topics we discussed were: The complexity of modern services and the complete reliance on infrastructure, as well as the importance of service literacy for leaders.

“Sometimes it’s the first time that [managers] have seen or experienced the service that they’re providing. It’s a bit like a chef basically cooking a meal having never tasted it.” – Lou Downe

A linkshow. James and Per discuss two articles they’ve stumbled on. This time we feature articles about things that slow down your website’s experience and why you can’t do anything about it plus the concept of “failing early” but not in a “failing fast” startup way.

Article one is Six things that slow down your site’s UX (and why you have no control over them) by Tammy Everts.

“You have a lot of control over the design and code for the pages on your site, plus a decent amount of control over the first and middle mile of the network your pages travel over. But when it comes to the last mile – or more specifically, the last few feet – matters are no longer in your hands”

Article two is Fail early: the hidden design principle behind great UX by Niaw de Leon.

“In a way, failing early is an extension of the UX heuristic visibility of system status, which advises us to “present feedback to the user as quickly as possible” in order to create trust through predictable interactions.”
