SUMMARY:Designing through a Merger or Acquisition
DESCRIPTION:As a product ecosystem expands from its first product offering to a suite of interconnected products\, the design team often scales and forms subteams within the larger design organization. With this additional organizational and product complexity\, it becomes increasingly difficult for designers to stay aligned on design best practices as well as interaction and visual design details. When design organizations reach this tipping point\, if they haven’t done so already\, they will begin to invest in a centralized design system. All good then\, right? Yes\, but\, now imagine that the already complex product suite doubles\, triples\, or even quadruples in size due to a sudden merger or acquisition. Moreover\, the acquired company brings its own perspective on design best practices and potentially their own design system. Through our panel discussion\, we’ll discuss key user experience methodologies that can help design teams who find themselves in similar situations and are unsure where to start. Panelists will cover topics such as how to align on end-to-end design processes\, how to utilize user research to establish shared baselines\, how to converge disparate design systems\, and more. By the end of this discussion\, attendees should walk away with a design-focused playbook to help them proactively deliver on the original promise of their organization’s merger or acquisition. (Note: for the first 30 minutes or so we’ll have light snacks and beverages so come on time if you’d like to mingle with the other attendees!) \n*Registration for this event will close on June 4th 2:00 pm PDT due to building security logistics.

SUMMARY:Changemakers\, with Maria Giudice
DESCRIPTION:CCA’s Design Division presents a talk & book signing by Maria Giudice\nBecoming a Changemaker by Leading with Design \nDesign leaders have evolved from being responsible for executing design concepts to having a crucial role in driving change across organizations. This is welcome progress\, but with greater responsibility comes new challenges\, especially when it comes to championing change in organizations likely to resist it. \nAs design-driven changemakers have risen in the ranks of business\, they’ve “learned on the job\,” experiencing both setbacks and victories. We captured many of these learnings by interviewing over 40 design leaders and incorporating their shared wisdom in our book\, Changemakers: How Leaders Can Design Change in an Insanely Complex World. Whether these leaders worked at IBM and Google\, a US government agency\, or a small consulting firm\, their insights and observations are applicable to all and well-worth considering. \nThis presentation will offer an overview of what we learned. It will cover Top 5 mistakes changemakers make as they navigate the messy processes and people issues involved in driving any type of change. You’ll learn how to determine the ground conditions needed for success\, how to find and align supporters\, how to minimize detractors\, and how to repurpose design tools\, frameworks\, and techniques to your advantage. \nBio:\nFor three decades\, creative teams and business leaders have sought the provocative vision and mentorship of Maria Giudice. After founding the pioneering experience design firm Hot Studio and leading global teams at Facebook and Autodesk\, Maria’s mission today is to build the next generation of creative leaders. Through one-on-one coaching\, group coaching\, and team-building workshops\, Maria unlocks the potential hidden in executives and the people they lead. A popular speaker at design and business conferences\, Maria is also the author of four design books\, including Rise of the DEO: Leadership by Design\, and most recently Changemakers: How Leaders Can Design Change in an Insanely Complex World.
