Scale, Fail, or Bail

Wed 25 October 17
14:20 - 14:40

How does your role make a team successful – professionally, personally, and for your company?

Few design leadership jobs are alike, but all require confident, thoughtful management. Simon dives into which questions to ask before accepting the job, when it’s OK to fail and when it’s not, and how you know if it’s time to go as you negotiate the challenges of rapidly scaling a product design team in evolving businesses.
