My Cupra had an update about a year ago which meant you could see the maps in the dash display. Guess it's all the same system between VW and Cupra.

I agree. I think it's about doing the stuff you've been asked to do well. Credibility will come, then you can focus on to autonomy. The team or stakeholders will start to ask you for your opinion and ideas.

But when companies compete at a similar price point to their competitors, they can’t rely on that.

They have to compete on experiences: the quality, the service, the small touches, the details that makes people feel good and come back.

It’s important to be able to reject feedback. But stay humble and try it out first. Using our judgement to keep it, reject it, or build on it otherwise we risk missing out on something valuable.

Some of the best experience I've ever helped design on have been massively lead or influenced by some incredible developers. Collaboration and alignment is the way.

Love a hand crafted feel to font. Really nice.

My favourite is reading user stories that have nothing to do with a user.

If you are up around swords Ardgillan castle/house is also nice. Great play ground if you have kids with you and brilliant views over Dublin and the Irish sea. Malahide is a nice spot also.

Typical day I'm mostly managing the teams and meeting. But when I need to I would say 1-3hr blocks. Maybe and hour of being really focused. You can probably design anything in 1-3 hours. But need to then spend a week aligning everyone around it.

That's cool. Really brings the property to life but not in the showy way that the normal video tours do.
