November: How Design Makes The World, with Scott Berkun

Do you wish more people understood good design and valued good designers? Or that your organization gave more power and influence to UX roles? Author Scott Berkun’s new book, How Design Makes The World shows the way, with inspiring new stories about the importance of design, and tactics for helping everyone appreciate good design and why it matters in their work and daily lives. He’ll share lessons from the book and offer advice on how to make design and user research more influential in your organization.

As a very cool bonus, we’ll be giving away some copies of How Design Makes The World to lucky attendees.

We’re excited to be presenting this event along with our friends over at ProductTank Waterloo.
