About the talk
Making the Band: The Key to Building a Great Design Team
What makes a good band? Is it the lead guitarist? The singer? Or is it how the band performs together on stage? What if the same traits that make a great band also apply to building a great design team?
In this talk, Nicole will equip you with the tools you need to build a high performing team. She’ll share a set of practices you can put in place so that your own band of designers are reaching their full potential. You will leave the session with some specific tactics and practices you and your team can use to begin working more in tune.
