A framework to enhance your design critiques

While we often focus on delivering exceptional results for our clients, we sometimes overlook the importance of how we meet and what we say to each other during those meetings.

This session will provide an opportunity to reflect on how your design team gives and receives feedback and the impact it has on your outcomes. I’ll share a practical, ready-to-use framework for running effective design critiques, giving you a tangible tool to take back to your team.

Walk away with actionable insights that will help foster a culture of constructive feedback, improve collaboration, and elevate your team’s critique sessions.

Laura is speaking on day three, June 12th.
