Opening keynote: The Values of Design<\/a><\/h3>\n

As designers, we have a core sense of our personal values and the value we bring to our users. Thinking about self promotion and finance can feel at odds with those values, but we do need to make sure our colleagues value our work, and that we\u2019re adding to the value of our company. By the end of this keynote with Ellen Chisa<\/strong>, you should have answers to the question \u201chow can I create more business impact, while still feeling like a designer?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Closing keynote: The Alignment Trap<\/a><\/h3>\n

Product managers and designers have something in common. We are all in the coherence business. We need to make sense of things long enough to make progress. We express this in different ways, which can often cause conflict and misunderstanding, but the underlying need remains the same.<\/p>\n

In this talk, John Cutler<\/strong> will explore what alignment really means in the context of complex unpredictable work, where we are constantly dancing between different levels of abstraction, frames, and perspectives.<\/p>\n
