This roundtable will bring senior design executives together to establish a shared thesis for Experience Leadership in the AI era, focusing on the unmet business needs that require stronger leadership from design, not just as makers, but as accountable shapers of systems, standards, and value creation.
Hosted by Mary Piontkowski, VP of Product Design at Cisco Networking, the discussion will explore how experience leadership differs from traditional design leadership, and what it takes to evolve the role toward greater accountability, influence, and enterprise impact.
The quarter will culminate in a clear, shared thesis to guide development and validation efforts throughout the year.
Join a Council of senior design executives united in advancing the practice of corporate design leadership at the C-Suite and Board-level of the world's most influential public and private companies.
