Few people have advanced the craft and management of #contentDesign as much as Melanie Seibert. She's been designing content experiences and managing design teams decades. She shares some of her best insights in her new book, "Managing Content Design Teams."

Melanie was one of my earliest guests on this pod. It was great to reconnect and hear her freshest insights. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did.
