" Sponsor sessions are optional but incredibly high quality content, not sales pitches. "

" You can change the conference time zone to your local time zone in the upper right corner so there’s no confusion about start times. "

" Supporting different ways people prefer to engage—like asynchronous workshops or prep time—helps introverts and extroverts contribute equally. "

" Today’s theme is resilience expressed through inspiring personal and professional stories. "

" Working on a different word than empower: People already have power, we have to respect it. "

" Sponsor sessions are not sales pitches; they are super similar to the quality of the main conference session. "

" Knowing your boundaries and skills lets you focus influence into meaningful outcomes rather than spreading too thin. "

" Sponsors make this conference possible, without them we wouldn't be here talking about some incredibly interesting things. "

" Thank you to all our sponsors; this entire conference would not be possible without you. "

" You are the reason why we are able to have such high quality programming that we do have at this conference this week. "

" Please be nice, respect each other, and carry yourself as if you were at your day job. "

" It is my honor and pleasure to welcome each of you to the 2021 Design at Scale Conference. "
