Since 2016, Leading Design has been convening leaders from around the globe to learn, share and grow. This world-class conference is designed specifically for people leading design teams, or over-seeing design direction.
Leaders from some of the world’s most pioneering organisations join us at London’s iconic Barbican Centre to take some time away from the day job, and connect with peers, in an atmosphere where long lasting relationships are formed.
Our industry leading speakers share their years of experience in finding talent, building culture, structuring and developing their teams, managing upwards, coping with stress, and maintaining personal wellbeing.
Design leadership can be hard; especially if you’re recently promoted. The best way to meet this challenge is through the support of peers, so we create plenty of opportunities to meet like-minded design leaders, swap stories, and build relationships we believe will last the rest of your careers.
Most conferences are focussed on practitioners. We put together a unique programme of content designed specifically to help leaders to hone their skills. We know that by the end of our conference we will have helped them tackle some of their most pressing challenges, enabling them to become the most effective design leader possible.
