Discovery starts here! La parte del proceso que nadie te enseña

Discovery starts here! La parte del proceso que nadie te enseña

Wed, May 27, 4:30 PM
From Business Insights Tech Talks

**Discovery starts here! La parte del proceso que nadie te enseña** ¿Qué pasa cuando el equipo deja de caber en una mesa? Cuando ya no basta con mirarse a la cara para saber por dónde va cada uno. Cuando lo informal deja de escalar y hay que inventar una forma nueva de empezar las cosas. Esta es la historia de cómo Agustina Segura, Senior Product Manager en Total Energies y Jessica Siruno, Product Designer de Business Insights, aprendieron a trabajar juntas en ese momento exacto: el del Discovery. Cuatro versiones, muchos tropiezos y algunas conversaciones que cambiaron la forma en que entendemos nuestro trabajo. Hablaremos de lo que se rompe cuando un equipo crece, de las decisiones que se toman en pasillos paralelos, y de cómo aprendimos a hacer visible lo que antes dábamos por hecho. Pero sobre todo, hablaremos de personas — de las que diseñan, de las que planifican, de las que desarrollan — y de cómo encontrar una forma común de empezar. Una charla sobre lo que pasa antes de que pase algo. Y sobre por qué casi siempre se nos olvida prepararlo. Al terminar, habrá tiempo para debatir y hacer networking con unos refrigerios en la terraza de Aticco Verdaguer! Agenda: 18;30 - 19:10 - Charla B! talks: Discovery starts here! 19:10- 20:00 - Networking con cervezas en la terraza Reserva tu plaza: https://bit.ly/42ZcihU

Design Talk: Fast 60, Coherent 40: Design in the AI Era

Design Talk: Fast 60, Coherent 40: Design in the AI Era

Wed, May 27, 5:00 PM
From Bloomfield
4.8

AI has made it easier to move fast, but not easier to know what matters. As design teams adopt AI into their workflows, the challenge is no longer just output. It is coherence: knowing what to automate, how to measure value and how to lead people through a shift that is changing expectations in real time. On 27 May, Greg Kozakiewicz joins us for a practical talk on design’s next competitive advantage. The session will look at the “60/40” ratio in AI-driven design work, and what it means for designers, design leaders, and teams trying to stay strategically relevant while everything gets faster. We’ll explore: * Why speed is no longer enough * What the “60/40” ratio means for modern design teams * How to measure design value beyond taste and output * How business thinking increase design’s influence * Where design systems fit in the AI era How to manage teams, expectations and ambiguity right now This is not a portfolio talk. It’s a practical session for designers who want to understand where the work is heading, how to stay useful and how to turn design into a clearer business advantage.
