You Will Have a SuperPower
About This Talk
We shape our message, and our message shapes us. When we present our expertise, we edit and translate so what we say is clear. Because when we are clear, we know our expertise is valued, and in return, we feel valued. Being clear requires the right combination of compassion, timing, humility, and assertiveness. In this interactive and inspiring talk, Ryan will share practical techniques that give design leaders a SuperPower to activate, energize, and awaken a whole new outlook on design.
