Yo, dawg.

Remember how you're always talking about investing in our design and development teams at this company/agency? Well, we've been doing alot of dope producing, and now we gotta let you know what time it is.

You know that "DesignOps Handbook" that I sent to you 6 months ago that you definitely read and told me how much you're on board with? Cool, so one of the guys who helped write it is flying into Melbourne especially to give a full day workshop on DesignOps and teach us how to actually implement all the great ideas in that book.

It's only $325 for an entire day and there's only 40 spots available, so if you want me and anyone else interested to go, we need to buy tickets ASAP.

I also know how you love the Wu-Tang Clan as much as me, so what I guess what I'm saying is: cash rules everything around me, C.R.E.A.M, get the money - dolla dolla bill, y'all.

Thanks, homie <3

The Workshop

Historically, design practices have focused on process, methods, and craft. But this limits design’s potential—design leaders can provide more value to their organizations by implementing robust DesignOps.

Who this is for?

If you are in the early stages of implementing design operations practice in your organizations, this workshop will teach you both a broad and flexible definition of design operations as well as tangible activities for how to start.


What you’ll learn

How to create a plan and execute DesignOps for managing teams — from recruitment through promotion and even off-boarding

How to develop assessment criteria to evaluate and select current software for supporting design operations

How to develop methods for optimizing workflows

How to integrate DesignOps roles and responsibilities into the wider design organization.
