All UX projects have a community of some sort associated with them. Whether we’re referring to our communities as users, audiences, stakeholders, or people our techniques are focused on engaging with those communities to ensure that we are designing the most appropriate solutions. It is not surprising then, that it often emerges that a UX or concept design job is as much a community management strategy piece as a UX piece.
