Free Videoconference: Shadow Design–Where Else is Design Happening in Your Organization?

April 20, 8am PT/11am ET – Register to attend.

Companies are spending millions of dollars on shadow design teams (aka non-designers doing design work). This session is to share the concept and the tools we’ve used to measure how much shadow design is happening in a client’s organization. Plus, a case study with some surprising results, and how a design leader used it to grow her team after months of banging her head against a wall.

An interesting and perhaps more productive way to approach the “ROI of Design” conversation.
