Sometimes, design programs get stuck in the rut of either shipping low impact tactical features or ideating on big picture vision that doesn’t ship. This presentation can help design leaders building new teams or leaders without design ops support plan design intake and iteratively elevate design impact. This talk will explain how to do so by reframing UX design as a “product offering” instead of a “process” to facilitate intake and planning.

You'll learn:

• How to ensure that design teams support the organization both tactically and strategically
• How to develop a healthy design project intake mechanism and define scope for projects
• How design can embed itself into organization’s methodologies and influence product direction
