Details

Everyone just found out that suddenly moving your entire team to remote work exposes all your organizational sins. Problems with leadership, trust, process, infrastructure and more have suddenly come rushing to the surface.
But the reality is those problems have always been there but we have been able to hide or overlook them since we were all in person.
In this keynote, Stephen Gates will have an honest conversation about —

  • The challenges he sees in most companies
  • The real problems that cause them
  • The solutions he has implemented as the Head Design Evangelist at InVision, which is a 100% remote company, working to elevate the impact of design with companies of all sizes and maturity levels all over the world.
