This is welcome progress, but with greater responsibility comes new challenges, especially when it comes to championing change in organizations likely to resist it.<\/p>\n<p>As design and research-driven changemakers have risen in the ranks of business, they\u2019ve \u201clearned on the job,\u201d experiencing both setbacks and victories. We captured many of these learnings by interviewing over 40 design leaders and incorporating their shared wisdom in our book, <em>Changemakers: How Leaders Can Design Change in an Insanely Complex World<\/em>. Whether these leaders worked at IBM and Google, a US government agency, or a small consulting firm, their insights and observations are applicable to all and well-worth considering.<\/p>\n<p>This presentation will offer an overview of what we learned. It will cover the top mistakes changemakers make as they navigate the messy processes and people issues involved in driving any type of change. You&#8217;ll learn how to determine the ground conditions needed for success, how to find and align supporters, how to minimize detractors, and how to repurpose design tools, frameworks, and techniques to your advantage.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Maria Giudice is the co-author of <em><a href=\"https:\/\/rosenfeldmedia.com\/books\/changemakers\/\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Changemakers: How Leaders Can Design Change in an Insanely Complex World<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2790\" src=\"https:\/\/rosenfeldmedia.com\/advancing-research-2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2023\/03\/50-changemakers.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"216\" height=\"324\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"excerpt_part\">&#8230;How Leaders Can Design Change in an <strong>Insan<\/strong>ely Complex World.
