Just as a garden needs the right conditions to thrive, a design system requires careful cultivation to take root and flourish. This talk offers a practical guide to nurturing design systems that not only grow but also deliver lasting impact. Marianne will explore the essential elements for building successful design systems, from initial idea to strategic growth, including:
- Team Dynamics Assembling the right team with the necessary skills and collaborative mindset to foster a thriving design system culture.
- Stakeholder Buy-in Securing support and resources from key stakeholders across the organisation by demonstrating the value and potential impact of the design system.
- Technical & Design Foundations Establishing the core principles, processes and infrastructure for a robust and scalable system, ensuring it can adapt to future needs.
