UX coverage for Alexis Ginsberg, Plan:Product Planning - December 6-22, 2021
Intent
This issue describes how broader group and team members are facilitating a Product Designer to take meaningful time away from work. The intent is that the designer isn't required to "catch-up" before and after taking a well-deserved vacation.
🤝 Responsibilities
List the priorities that the responsible backups need to cover. Backups can be another product designer, your design manager, or product manager.
