重點 (Top highlight)

The industry is changing towards a more agile approach and jacks of one trade can go extinct sooner than we think.

該 行業正在發生變化 朝著更加靈活的方法和一個貿易的插Kong可以去滅絕快于我們的想法。

I’ve read a quote in a book recently that said:

我最近讀了一本書中的一句話說：

“If you’re very skilled in one thing, your chances of success are pretty low. But if you add two or more things to your skillset (at a high level) those chances raise drastically.”

“如果您在一件事上非常熟練，那么成功的機會就很低。 但是，如果您在技能組中添加兩個或兩個以上的東西(高水平)，那么這些機會將大大增加。”

Can’t remember which book it was, but the quote stayed with me. It makes a lot of sense!

不記得那本書是哪本書了，但那句話一直留在我身邊。 這很有道理！

我們稱之為內部協作 。 (Let’s call it internal collaboration.)

Because if you can collaborate internally on a couple of different levels, you’ll be able to communicate with your team better. It also gives you a much broader understanding of how different pieces work together to form the whole.

因為如果您可以在多個不同級別進行內部協作，則可以更好地與團隊進行溝通。 它還使您對不同部分如何協同工作以形成整體有更廣泛的了解。

There’s a reason industrial designers have to do hands-on work in wood, metal and plastics to graduate. To be able to create something that works on every possible level, you need to understand it.

工業設計師必須要動手操作木材，金屬和塑料才能畢業，這是有原因的。 為了能夠創建適用于所有可能級別的東西，您需要了解它。

Then working with engineers and marketers you’ll able to communicate without any gaps and that leads both to a better result and more fulfilment of a job well done.

然后，與工程師和營銷人員合作，您將可以毫無障礙地進行交流，從而既可以帶來更好的結果，又可以更好地完成出色的工作。

Don’t lock yourself in a tower where the only exit is through a pair of Norman doors. That way you’ll say there forever and miss out!

不要將自己鎖在唯一的出口是穿過諾曼門的塔中。 這樣一來，您將永遠在那里說而錯過！

讓我們再次好奇！ (Let’s be curious again!)

If you’re stuck in your little niche specialisation, you almost always miss out on the world. The whole idea of growing as a human and a designer is to explore areas seemingly not that close to what you do.

如果您陷入小眾市場，幾乎總是會錯過世界。 成長為人類和設計師的整個想法是探索似乎與您的工作不太接近的領域。

Many UXers turn red when they hear “learn to code”.

當許多UXer聽到“學習編碼”時會變成紅色。

I already have enough super important knowledge to waste it on becoming a coder!!

我已經有足夠的超重要知識，可以浪費在成為編碼員上！！

But in reality coding is exactly the same thing as UX. It’s problem-solving at it’s finest. And you get concrete results almost right away (when you compile) instead of waiting for the results of a user study.

但實際上，編碼與UX完全相同。 最好地解決問題。 這樣，您幾乎立即(在編譯時)就可以得到具體的結果，而不必等待用戶研究的結果。

伊隆·馬斯克(Elon Musk) (Elon Musk)

A good example of a generalist is your favourite polarizing entrepreneur — Elon Musk. He knows how to code (he started that way), but also how rockets work and how to use AI hive mind for self-driving. He can also be boring … a tunnel under LA.

通才的一個很好的例子是您最喜歡的兩極分化企業家-Elon Musk。 他知道如何編碼(以這種方式開始)，但是他知道火箭是如何工作的，以及如何使用AI蜂巢思維進行自動駕駛。 他也可能很無聊……在洛杉磯之下的一條隧道。

Now I’m not saying work 25 hours a day and do everything, but you don’t need to be Elon to be like Elon. Learn one extra thing each year, but try to learn it well enough so you’re confident with the skill.

現在，我并不是說要每天工作25個小時并做所有事情，但是您不必像 Elon 一樣成為 Elon。 每年多學習一件事，但要嘗試得足夠好，以使您對技能充滿信心。

UX外部 (Outside of UX)

If you’re the proud leader of the digital world — the “UX’er” then you’re already on top of the food chain. But it won’t hurt to learn UI design first and then maybe some coding.

如果您是數字世界的驕傲領袖-“ UX'er”，那么您已經在食物鏈的頂端。 但是先學習UI設計然后再學習一些編碼不會有什么壞處。

After that you can proceed to learn UX writing, presenting (or teaching) and more. The possibilities are endless.

之后，您可以繼續學習UX編寫，演示(或教學)等等。 可能性是無止境。

And if you managed to learn card sorting and flow diagramming then the rest should be simple!

而且，如果您設法學習了卡片分類和流程圖，那么其余部分應該很簡單！

這對我來說是怎么回事 (Here’s how it happened for me)

I started my “career” as a web designer back in 1999. It was a crazy time with innovation coming from every direction. As a web designer my responsibilities were to design the UI (in Photoshop) and then code the HTML and CSS.

早在1999年，我就以一名網頁設計師的身份開始了我的“職業生涯”。這是一個瘋狂的時代，各個方向的創新都來了。 作為一名網頁設計師，我的職責是設計UI(在Photoshop中)，然后編寫HTML和CSS。

Back then the only people involved in the process were Web Designers and Web Developers (who worked on the backend) with extended Marketing teams doing research.

當時，參與此過程的唯一人員是Web設計人員和Web開發人員(在后端工作)，并且有擴展的市場營銷團隊進行研究。

And many companies thrived in that era, even though the average consumer wasn’t yet that well-versed in technology. I’d say it’s actually easier now when the users are on average a lot more tech-savvy.

即使在普通消費者尚未精通技術的情況下，許多公司仍在那個時代蓬勃發展。 我想說，現在平均來說，用戶對技術的了解要容易得多。

I worked the second shift at a travel startup, starting work at 4pm and finishing around 10pm. Designing, then coding and handing the front-end code over to the “real developers”.

我在旅行初創公司工作了第二班，從下午4點開始工作，到晚上10點左右結束。 設計，編碼然后將前端代碼移交給“真正的開發人員”。

Having a wider set of skills allows you to do a lot more with a product.擁有更廣泛的技能可以使您在產品上做更多的事情。

然后Flash來了 (Then Flash came)

And with it a lot more web-based interactivity. So obviously it was a Web Designer’s job to learn this new tool. And I did. For the next few years I was designing and coding anything from large portals to silly Flash banner ads and games.

并且有了更多基于Web的交互性。 因此，顯然，學習此新工具是Web設計師的工作。 而我做到了。 在接下來的幾年中，我將設計和編碼各種東西，從大型門戶網站到愚蠢的Flash標語廣告和游戲。

When UX started becoming popular around 2006–2007 I jumped onto that ship as well and brought a couple of extra processes to an agency I used to work at the time.

當UX在2006-2007年左右開始流行時，我也跳上了那艘船，并為我當時工作的代理機構帶來了一些額外的流程。

But why did I learn this completely new, pretty complex thing if I had a stable Web Designer job? Because I was curious! I wanted to explore how digital products are built from each side of that process and that’s exactly what I did.

但是，如果我從事穩定的Web Designer工作，為什么還要學習這一全新的，相當復雜的東西呢？ 因為我很好奇！ 我想探討從該過程的各個方面構建數字產品的方式，而這正是我所做的。

T形與金字塔形 (T-shaped vs pyramid-shaped)

Many startups at their early stages can’t really afford a huge design team. So being well versed in the entire design spectrum — from business analysis, through flow design, research and UI is going to be necessary.

許多處于起步階段的初創公司實際上負擔不起龐大的設計團隊。 因此，必須精通整個設計領域-從業務分析到流程設計，研究和UI。

And of course, you can only look at large corporations, which due to their slow processes are still mentally in 2009. I mean it must be super cool to work for a company that still forces their employees to use Internet Explorer 7 ;)

當然，您只能看一下大型公司，由于其緩慢的發展進程在2009年仍屬頭腦。

So instead of being a niche expert, become a generalist because this is the future. But there are different kinds of generalists too.

因此，不要成為利基專家，而要成為通才，因為這是未來。 但是也有不同類型的通才。

The T-shaped model was the most popular kind for a while, but it’s slowly being replaced by the Pyramid. Instead of being great at one thing and knowledgeable with a couple of others, you are great at one, very good at two, pretty good at another two and so on.

T形模型是一段時間以來最受歡迎的一種，但它逐漸被金字塔所取代。 您不僅擅長一件事，而且不擅長于其他事物，而是擅長于一件事，非常擅長于兩件事，非常擅長于另外兩件事，依此類推。

So for a UX’er it can be:

因此，對于UX'er來說，它可以是：

• UI design
  UI設計
• More specialised research
  更專業的研究
• Marketing
  營銷學
• Writing
  寫作
• Coding
  編碼

僅僅UX已經不夠了 (Just UX is not enough anymore)

There was a time when UX people were scarce and highly specialised approaches were the thing. But most companies are getting leaner and a lot more agile now and they simply can’t afford a specialist (unless it’s some sort of specialist superhero, but there are only a few of those).

曾幾何時，UX人才匱乏，而高度專業化的方法才是問題。 但是，現在大多數公司變得越來越精簡，敏捷得多，而且他們根本負擔不起專家(除非它是某種專家超級英雄，但其中只有少數)。

The rest is already branching out and changing that UX moniker to “product designer”.

其余的已經擴展，并將該UX名稱改為“產品設計師”。

Don’t be so serious about what you do. Be curious and explore everything around you. That’s the only way to truly grow and don’t suffer a professional burnout while still staying relevant.

不要對自己的工作那么認真。 好奇并探索周圍的一切。 這是真正成長的唯一途徑，并且在保持相關性的同時不會遭受職業倦怠。

Good luck!

祝好運！
