🌪️ UX in Flux: Navigating the Chaos
Let’s face it - things in UX are moving faster than your last app update. AI is redesigning how we work, orgs are reshuffling, and it feels like sh*t has well and truly hit the fan.
So… how do we lead with confidence when the ground keeps shifting?
Join us for a raw, honest, and fun evening of conversation about what it means to lead through chaos, adapt to constant change, and keep your team (and yourself) sane through it all.
Expect real talk, some laughs, a few “yep, been there” moments, and plenty of actionable wisdom to help you navigate the wild ride that is modern UX leadership.
