Pulse Q&A Part 2: Design and the business

​In continuing our conversation with design executives, we’ll explore what it means to lead in uncertain times, and how the recent economic shifts may impact our discipline, our teams, and our roles as leaders.

Part two will dig deeper into the increased pressure to deliver impact and align with the business, all with less resources.

Join us in conversation with:
- Liz Danzico, VP of Design at Microsoft
- Stewart Scott-Curran, Senior Director of Brand at Loom
- Mia Blume, CEO of Design Dept.

Hosted by Design Dept.

​Background
At the end of 2022, we reached out to our community to hear how design leaders were feeling and responding to all the changes the year had brought. We surveyed over 300 leaders in our community (of all levels) across public tech companies, startups, agencies, and non-tech companies. This survey—A Pulse on Design Leadership—highlights key learnings in response to the economic climate, retention and hiring, and challenge areas. We want to share these insights and invite you to join in conversation on what it all means moving forward.
