For us designers it’s obvious: “Good design is good business”. But how might we explain and prove it to our business & tech stakeholders? What are the challenges we as designers are facing when describing our approach? How can we make the value of our work obvious to our stakeholders? In this “Ask Me Anything” session, we will share our challenges and ideas around what works and what doesn’t.
Looking forward to meeting you there! And curious to see, where our conversation will take us – after all, this is an ask-me-anything session!
