Vuokko explores authenticity from both a personal perspective and as a design leader at a technology company: how she’s found a strong voice while building and scaling Monzo, and how that has helped the business — by embracing what makes her different and using it as a strength to build a beloved brand and product and diverse and high-performing creative teams, showing that you can be a confident and inspiring leader in different kinds of ways.
This talk was recorded at Leading Design London 2024.
