Tala El Hallak talks design at IBM Z


Listen Later

In our latest episode, we were able to talk with one of our Toronto-based design managers Tala El Hallak.  Tala has been with IBM Z for four years, and her journey has been incredible.

Tala began her tenure as a visual designer in our Toronto lab (back then the team was just two).  Fast forward to today and she has been fortunate to work on a multitude of design projects for IBM Z, she recently served as a design coach at our Patterns program, and she's grown into the role of design manager at that same lab she began her IBM career at!

Episode four traverses many topics, including:

  • Tala's journey to design
  • Life before IBM (one of the firs to join team).
  • Her prior roles and projects in IBM Z
  • What it means to be a "people manager" at IBM
  • Managing teams in the "virtual workspace"
  • The design culture at IBM Z
  • The Patterns program
  • How an aspiring young designer might join her team
  • We're glad you stopped by to have a listen.  If you haven't checked out our previous episodes, be sure to give them a listen today!
