About the talk

Navigating design leadership levels and spheres of influence

- Barbican Centre

As the realm of design continues to evolve, so does the spectrum of leadership roles within it. From guiding design work as a Lead Designer to setting strategic visions as a Chief Design Officer, the journey through design leadership is rich, varied, and multifaceted. But how does one determine which rung on the leadership ladder aligns with ones aspirations, strengths, and purpose?

Join Maja for a session that invites design leaders to delve deep and introspectively navigate the design leadership pipeline. Together, we'll:

  • Unpack the roles on the Design Leadership pipeline and the nuances of each leadership tier.
  • Explore responsibility, accountability and influence associated with each level.
  • Reflect on personal aspirations and the alignment with the Design leadership roles.
  • Assess your own fit with the roles in the Design Leadership pipeline.

Whether you're a seasoned design leader considering your next move, or you're stepping into leadership for the first time, this talk offers a clarifying lens to help you find your rightful place on the leadership ladder. Because leading in design is not just about climbing; it's about finding the level that resonates with your unique voice, values, and vision.
