New systems for rising experience accountability and management

The design executive's central challenge today is not to slow the business down in defense of quality, but to prove that design can help the business move faster without losing trust, coherence, or differentiation.

In a climate where speed is assumed and caution is often dismissed, the leaders who succeed will be the ones who make experience (design, research, et al.) a floor raiser—as much as a ceiling raiser. But what does this new floor and ceiling look like? What does collaboration and operations look like in this new reality?

In this Q3 roundtable, we'll pressure test and share how design executives are tackling multiple challenges simultaneously—in the business, product, and teams—and what it takes today to lead with relevance.
