Interim UX & Product Design Leadership for Complex Organisations
Welcome to Tinayre Blom & Associés.
We work with organisations that need experienced leadership to stabilise UX and Product Design teams, clarify product direction, and improve product decision‑making.
We’re typically brought in when product organisations are under pressure — during growth, transformation, leadership change, or when teams have become fragmented and delivery has slowed.
Through interim leadership, fractional roles, and strategic consulting, we help organisations restore clarity, coherence, and momentum.
When Organisations Bring Us In
We are typically brought in when organisations need experienced UX and Product Design leadership to stabilise teams, clarify direction and improve decision-making.
-
We are most often asked to step in when:
• Product teams are busy but lack alignment • UX exists but lacks influence • Delivery has slowed or become fragmented • Leadership direction is unclear • Organisations are scaling quickly • Teams have grown but operating models haven’t evolved • Product, Design and Engineering are pulling in different directions
In these situations, experienced leadership can quickly stabilise teams and improve decision-making.
