Beyond the tooling: Leading through AI anxiety

Everyone is talking about AI, but what are we as design leaders not talking about? In this lunchtime round-table, we’ll park the hype and have an honest, no-pressure conversation about the topics or questions many design leaders might be reluctant to say or ask out loud; feeling behind, worried about credibility, struggling with uneven team adoption, or unsure how “AI-ready” you or the organisation really is.

Swap real stories, pressure-test mindsets, and leave with small, practical actions to increase readiness; personally, in your teams, and across the business. Expect light facilitation and quick prompts.

Come curious; leave clearer! Caution: May be unexpectedly therapeutic.
