Over the past decade the role of design has taken on greater organisational significance. Today design leaders must focus not only on creating great products and services, but on transforming business through the power of design. But what about our own personal transformation? We pour so much time into building teams, operationalising design, developing strategy, and creating value for our companies that it can be hard to keep sight of what happens to us in the process. If personal transformation lays the foundation for organisational change, how do we make space to show up fully and be our authentic selves in a professional environment? This talk explores the question of self transformation in the context of work life and looks at how inner struggles can expand our understanding of what it means to be a professional, a leader, and a designer.
