Compelling Conversations with Today’s Top Design Leaders

As an executive design leader I’m fascinated by the experience of designers moving into new leadership roles. For most of us this is completely uncharted territory, the jobs are often undefined and there is rarely a roadmap or playbook to help us succeed, so most of us have had to learn on the job.

In each episode of This is a Prototype, I invite design leaders who have traveled a variety of life and career journeys to share their stories, compare notes, and talk about what it takes to be a leader in this new era of design.
