Creating a Common Vision: Transforming Products by Leading with Design

Presented by Bill Flora

 

 

Even the most innovative products are held up by inconvenient, inadequate internal processes, and are often developed in silos. How can this be fixed? Lead with design. Bill, who began his career as a designer at Microsoft, will draw from his experience leading with a design at a company with an "engineering" culture, and discuss how to use design in a way integrates multiple inputs, along with goals and language from voices across the organization, so the vision feels like a natural extension of the company.
