We were thrilled to host Sakeena Tayebji for an inspiring session on Innovation Design & UX Strategy: Unlocking the Next Big Bet as a Designer. Sakeena shared how innovation design and UX strategy converge to help designers move beyond the screen—shaping product direction, building trust with stakeholders, and uncovering the next big opportunities. 🌟 Key takeaways: - Innovation design is about blending creativity, empathy, and strategic insight to solve real-world problems. - UX strategy provides a roadmap to improve user experiences over time. - Designers can grow their influence by reframing problems, navigating ambiguity, and designing systems (not just interfaces). - Culture and collaboration are essential—innovation thrives in teams that embrace open communication and continuous learning. - We also reflected on powerful mindset shifts and hands-on activities that challenged us to design beyond the brief. 💜 A special thank you to our amazing sponsor nineDots.io for supporting this event and sharing valuable perspectives on recruitment. We were delighted to have Aisling Fogarty with us on the night, adding so much to the conversation and experience for our attendees. And of course, a huge thank you to Sakeena for sharing her expertise and stories from real-world projects across industries. 💡 "Minds are like parachutes—they only work when they are open." #LadiesThatUX #UXDesign #InnovationDesign #UXStrategy #DesignLeadership
