Design leaders '24: a recap

30 UX leaders in the Tyrolean Alps for 2.5 days… sounds like someone's idea of a weird joke – but it was real, it was intense, and… it was also a whole lot of fun.

We just wrapped up an amazing 2.5 days of deep dives into UX leadership at our very first design leaders getaway in the beautiful Tyrolean Alps!

The event was packed with topics like UX governance, authentic leadership, people management, communication, handling tough conversations, discovering your leadership style, growing UX teams, and problem-solving, just to name a few. But it wasn’t all about sessions - we made sure there was plenty of time for networking, connecting, and some really engaging conversations.

A massive thank you to our incredible speakers: Molly Stevens (Senior Director of UX at Booking.com), Giles Colborne (CEO of cxpartners), Elizé Leborgne (UX designer, founder, and speaking coach at Elizé Presents), UX Research leaders James Lang and Christian Gonzales from Google Workspace. You brought so much valuable insight to the table! And we can’t forget the fantastic Firefly chat with research author Indi Young - it was a real highlight.

Looking forward to everything that's coming, because one thing’s for sure: this was just the beginning!
