with Kristine Berry and Jenny PriceSign up to be notified of future events.Enabling DesignOps at scale brings the promise of effective transformation for design teams—their capabilities, performance, and business outcomes. But what does it take to operationalize this within your own organization? Workshop participants will explore and assess how they might scale essential areas of DesignOps to better support and build sustainable design teams within their own organizations.
Jenny Price and Kristine Berry, two IBM DesignOps leaders, will lead participants through a series of IBM Design Thinking exercises that will ultimately result in a customized roadmap that participants can bring back to their organizations.

- Exploring strategies for advancing DesignOps across your organization
- Engaging with other DesignOps leaders who are interested in solving for pain-points
- Selecting concepts that will be the most useful for your organization
- Developing a 30-60-90 day roadmap specifically for your organization to explore further iteration
- Learning more about DesignOps resources, methodologies, and applications
