Designs role and how it has evolved
Design’s role has evolved. Customers’ expectations have evolved. Competition is growing. Technology and data science are advancing. Employees are hungry for support, growth, and impact.
How do we as design and user experience leaders embrace change, create strong, resilient, and talented teams, all while leveraging time-tested skills, practices, and values important to team building and engaging, effective customer experiences? How should our approach change, if at all, given the impact of AI and ML on the way we design and develop products?
