    UX Meets MBA: A Designer Goes to Business School

    If great design can imbue customers with trust, why are designers so removed from product management and the larger business strategy? As a design executive with an MBA, McLean Donnelly strives to bring both worlds together to create a new model in which creative and design align with overall business strategy and company vision to drive increased profitability and customer engagement. 

    This talk will help build skills towards: 

    • Articulating the value of design in "business" terms
    • Building strategic plans that include customer and business outcomes
    • Teaching designers or developers to use business metrics in their everyday work
