Harmonizing Creativity and Constraint: Unleashing the Power of Change in Design Operations

December 5, 12:10 PM EST

Lizette Coetzee Strydom, Lead Design Enablement, ABSA Bank shares her experiences of moving from a structured Operational Risk and Compliance environment to a dynamic role in Design Operations. She illustrates how embracing the power of change reshapes not only individual mindsets but entire teams, driving sustainable success and creating lasting impact on the bottom line.

The session reviews how a well-orchestrated Design Operations team can thrive by aligning roles with individual strengths, fostering a culture of growth, and transforming perceived obstacles into opportunities for innovation.

Hear more about the delicate balance between creativity and constraint, and how, when effectively harnessed, this tension becomes the catalyst for innovation, efficiency, and success within the design ops landscape.

The Design Operations New York 2023 conference was so rewarding! As a DesignOps "team of 1" practitioner, the opportunity to be among other humans who are in the field was so fulfilling. Also, what I learned in those 8 hours is immeasurable.
