" AI is not really doing anything better than humans yet; it’s just faster and more efficient - Bria. "

" We talked all about resilience, curated by myself yesterday. "

" You should absolutely participate in Slack—if you're missing that, you're missing a key part of our conference. "

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

" A lot of design ops impact comes from influence, and influence comes from empathy and showing the benefit of what you are putting out. "

" Corey’s story of resilience during his 2023 to 2024 job search ends well because we accepted his offer at Adobe. "

" Design ops is like when everything's working well, nobody notices it; when things break down, everyone misses it - Theresa citing Camden Moore. "

" If you have questions for the speakers, put them in Slack under the associated thread. "

" Our speakers prepare and prepare and prepare — they have a dark board with my face on it because they’re so sick of hearing from us. "

" We'll have a centralized Slack channel for all discussion to come together as one community. "

" You can change the time zone on Rosenfeld Media’s website to reflect your local time. "

" Please put your dropdown or your personal agenda in your local time zone so there’s no ambiguity. "

" The code of conduct is on every page of our site; it includes procedures for getting assistance. "

" This conference is the opportunity I saw to design an experience that felt personal to our community. "

" Manuel Herrera is here to take the burden of note-taking off us, so you can focus on the moment. "

" If you feel uncomfortable or unsafe engaging in this community, we want to know about it. "

" You can invite anyone in your family to attend the sponsor sessions for free even if they’re not registered. "

" Researchers have really taken it on the chin during this latest economic downturn. "

" Because this is virtual, we have a digital swag bag with goodies you can access via QR code or URL. "

" If anything's going wrong on your end, please reach out to help-customer-desk-service in Slack for tech help. "

" MJ Broadband’s sketch notes will make your conference experience 10 times easier. "

" Just because empathy isn’t always visible at the top doesn’t mean you can’t be the change. "

" Take advantage of the digital swag bag — it’s our way of replicating in-person perks in a virtual world. "

" Slack is the heart and soul of this conference, where the most intimate interactions happen. "

" 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. "

" Designers must do the internal work of self-awareness and reflection before shifting power to communities. "

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

" Design ops job descriptions change every three to six months depending on the company’s needs. "

" Kay Abba is a business and project analyst, UX designer, and project manager who brings multifaceted expertise to our note-taking. "

" You can invite your coworker, your brother, your sister, your aunt to sponsor sessions even if they’re not signed up for the conference. "

" All the videos and decks will be shared almost within minutes after each presentation so you can relax and enjoy. "

" If you are not on Slack, you are missing out on one of the biggest and most interactive parts of our conference. "

" Our digital swag bag is free to all registered attendees and packed with awesome sponsor offers. "
