1.15–2.30 PM LUNCH SESSIONS
DESIGN MANAGEMENT
Once viewed as creative specialists surrounded by business experts, today’s corporate design leaders are increasingly recognized as cross-functional problem solvers with valuable skills and methods. While designers finally have a seat at the table, they are also being pulled in any number of directions and asked to quickly become subject matter experts while assuming more traditional business and management responsibilities. In this roundtable discussion, participants will share insights and best practices for “design-minded” leadership in challenging and ambiguous environments–from inter-team collaboration to scaling and managing teams, on-the-job professional development, and personal growth.
