Speak, Listen, and Connect with Impact
Being a design leader means navigating complexity, driving innovation, and creating a culture where creativity thrives. The secret weapon to all of that is communication.
What we design is limited by the conversation we did or did not have
In the world of design, leadership isn’t just about having the best ideas; it’s about getting people on board with those ideas. It’s about speaking a language that cuts through the noise and gets to the heart of what drives people. This talk isn’t just theory—it's packed with practical techniques and real-world examples to elevate your communication game to the next level.
