When Change Helps, and When It Hurts
As organisations, teams, and technologies evolve, Design Operations must adapt to stay relevant and effective.
But adaptation isn’t always progress.
This panel explores the forces shaping the next era of DesignOps - from organisational structures and leadership models to team dynamics and individual agency.
As AI continues to blur the boundaries between operational disciplines, DesignOps increasingly intersects with Product Ops, demanding adaptability in new directions.
Panellists will discuss:
- How DesignOps can remain flexible without losing focus
- How to recognise when adaptation drives innovation versus confusion
- What a truly adaptive future might look like for design and product teams at scale
Explore who is truly shaping DesignOps today - and when to embrace change, resist it, or redefine it to create a future that evolves with grace.
