About Event
Design careers rarely follow a straight path. As we grow, many of us start asking: should I continue as an individual contributor, move into management, or rethink the kind of work I want to do altogether?
In this session, Dan Staton will share what he’s learned from his journey from classroom teacher to design leader. He’ll reflect on career growth, choosing IC or manager for the right reasons, and how AI is impacting design roles.
This meetup is a good fit for designers and design-adjacent professionals who are thinking intentionally about career direction, leadership, and the future of design work.
👐 Open to IxDF members and non-members!
