" This is a great opportunity. This is a gift to yourself to dig in with other design ops peers and really learn together. "

" When I think about resilience, I think about flexibility, like trees that bend in strong winds instead of breaking — that starts with mindset and communication. "

" Resilience is about more than surviving; it’s about growth in our practice and relationships. "

" If design ops only serves designers, it risks silos; instead it must apply design thinking across R&D and product teams - Patrizia. "

" Slack is a huge part of how we are going to be engaging in today’s conference. "

" We’re obligated to treat each other with kindness and respect. "

" David Nicholson is our in-house scribe who produces wonderful sketch notes throughout the conference. "

" Slack is where the real party is happening for this conference. "

" If you have a question for a speaker, put it in the thread for their talk, not in the general chat. "

" If you are a cohort participant and don’t see your private Slack channel, please let us know so we can guide you. "

" Go out the next three days as being part of this conversation rather than simply sitting back and being a consumer of information. "

" You gotta write that charter to get clarity with your team. "

" The program page has a time zone selector so everyone can attend sessions on their local time without confusion. "

" You bring energy that blows me away. I’m so excited by your excitement. "

" I am so incredibly proud of Dante, Courtney, Olney, and Gonzalo for their care and effort in the curation process. "

" OKRs are not one-size-fits-all; you have to shape them based on your organizational context and culture. "

" We have over a thousand members in the #do-general Slack channel, and that’s where the party is at. "

" Check out our digital swag bag for some awesome offers from our sponsors – it's like free t-shirts and sweaters but digital. "

" If you ever feel unsafe or threatened in this virtual community, we want to make sure you’ve got the support you need. "

" Sponsor sessions are completely free, and you can invite anyone you want to those. "

" All of this content would not have been possible without your support and your feedback. "

" The official conference time zone is Pacific Standard Time, but you can change it to your own time zone at designatskill.com. "
