This is less about a functional role title and more about what you believe, combined with your ‘sphere of influence’.
The qualifying criteria is simple:
- You think there’s an opportunity to do things better (specifically, more ethically) than they’re done today
- Through your work you are actively engaged in designing or marketing products, services and policies
- You are willing to learn and take meaningful action
You might be (in no particular order):
- A Product Manager
- A Product Marketer
- A Product Designer
- A User Experience Designer
- A Service Designer
- An Interaction Designer
- A Software Engineer
- A Policy Analyst
- A Privacy Professional
- A Data Protection Practitioner
- A Legal Designer
- A Lawyer
- A Paralegal
- A Startup Founder
- An Applied Ethicist
- A Systems Designer
- A Data Scientist
- An Academic
- A Business Leader or Senior Executive
- A Board Director
- A Politician (Yes, you need this 😊)
But don’t feel you have to box yourself into a functional role. Lot’s of people have various skills and experiences. Sometimes it’s hard to categorise, no matter how hard others want to. I’m definitely one of these people.
So, if you want to design more ethical, socially positive products, services and policies, reach out to Nate or Mat. Better yet, just join the beta and start #MakingBetterTogether
