This Product Designer product extremely Agile and Jira Friendly. It's critical for Senior Stakeholders and Technology Partners to have full transparency into what UX is doing, and how we are making the product better for the end user. It not only helps the team stay user-centered, it also gives them a heads-up for upcoming development work, and includes them in technical and business feasibility discussions.
All the wonderful UX research in the world won't turn into actual dev work, if you can't effectively show why it matters.
All of your beautiful UI designs and prototypes will be in lost to the ages, if you can't communicate the logic of your decisions.
TL;DR: Being a talented and thorough Product Designer isn't enough!
You need to be able to translate what UX knows into the language of business. Only then can UX ensure that end users get the best product possible.
