Holy shit Sera Tajima has such an amazing class in growth. I learned so much. It’s common sense stuff that I didn’t know was there until it was pointed out. She’s super good at teaching. Win for me! This is the thing: people talk about growth hacking… people talk about sustainability… but NO ONE talks about Sustainable (responsible) Growth. Given the field I’m in (AI UX) this is direly needed because everyone wants more compute. Sera’s framework is chef’s kiss. 🧠
Host, Honest UX Talks
We had such an informative podcast interview about growth design. Sera is an incredibly well spoken designer!

I highly recommend this course. The instructor Sera and cohort participants are all so helpful, the materials very clear and practical, and on completion of the programme you will have clear next steps on what you can do to drive growth.

Sera is one of the most thoughtful designers I’ve come across in a long while. Her insights are consistently on point and her methodology thorough yet flexible. She’s got a terrific work ethic, great communication style, and an eye for detail.

Spotify Wrapped is my favorite!
This year, one highlight was seeing Sera Tajima's podcast in my top 5. I've recommended it to fellow Product Designers all year-and for good reasons.
What makes Sera's podcast stand out? Her solo episodes are packed with research, delivering trustworthy content on sustainable design. When she hosts guests, the conversations feel like you're part of a casual, yet insightful, discussion. Serious topics are balanced with light, funny moments.

Sera has always been a great resource throughout my design education. I was so excited to finally join a live cohort! She provides so much valuable knowledge and delivers unique methodologies in a professional manner. The growth design cohort was a great experience of both learning and rapid fire hands on workshops to improve critical thinking. All great things that any product design can truly benefit from!

I usually don't have the patience to listen to podcasts, but I did finished Sera's recent podcast with Hang, which is rare. I think that shows how great the episode was. I can tell it got quite vulnerable and personal but I'm glad they both followed the flow and didn't strictly use a script. That made the episode a very long one, but I didn't mind the length at all. And kudos for the stamina in producing and effort in editing the podcast.

Sera is a great instructor and I don't say that lightly. It was refreshing to be a part of this course. It was great in teaching me how to approach design in a way that benefits the company's business goals. It was so impactful and applicable that I could step out of the course and use the tools the next day at my job, and the growth approach was received extremely well by my PM.

Sera was a leader who drove the product process and decision making. She was very proactive in communicating to the team, especially as we built a team around the work that she was doing focused on one segment of the market. We look for a bias towards action and Sera definitely took ownership. Her ability to go into the research and know how to execute was impressive. Behind the scenes, she knew how to find the resources and answer questions. She managed challenges as they came and fixed it, with no oversight. It was great!
