Designing Better Decisions

Kim Goodwin shared her closing keynote, Designing Better Decisions.

Leadership By Design 2018

Context/Leader Fit

Any seasoned designer or PM knows the importance of context: users, goals, environments, and business needs all shape the “best” solution to a given problem. And yet, designers and leaders frequently assume that a process, skill set, or attitude that worked in one place is the one right answer. Kim will discuss:

  • What characteristics of organizations demand different things from leaders
  • How to assess your leadership effectiveness within a given context
  • How to find your own context/leader fit
