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

" No need to take notes — session notes, sketch notes, resources, videos and decks will be shared after presentations. "

" If you ever need help, you can reach us at help-customer-service for technical issues and customer support. "

" We have got you covered with sketch notes, resource lists, session notes, videos, and decks all shared ASAP after presentations. "

" AI is a great tool for drafting and summarizing, but you have to keep your unique voice because that’s what differentiates you. "

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

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

" Look for people wearing the very acute Rosenfeld Media black hats if you need help. "

" We’ve got you covered with notes, sketch notes, slides, and recordings so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. "

" There will be session notes and sketch notes so you don’t have to take notes yourself unless you want to. "

" Our sponsors offer sessions with no sales pitches, just incredibly high-quality content. "

" Huge shout out to Lauren Cantor, our house librarian, for her wonderful contributions. "

" You can also reach us quickly by going to help-desk-customer-service for any tech or support issues. "

" Documentation your team will actually use, how to define and maintain a design ops roadmap, AI as a design partner. "

" Please read our code of conduct; it’s on every page of our website and includes ways to get help if needed. "

" Cohorts are a super duper fun way to engage with more of our community. "

" Today we’re gonna be talking about researchers as organizational change makers. "

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

" Louisa Scholar saves us a lot of work by curating the Civic Design library and digital benefits hub. "

" Even though we are virtual, we are still community and must treat each other with kindness and respect. "

" If you ever feel unsafe in our virtual community, we want to know about it so we can provide support. "

" Go meet someone new at this conference and set up a coffee chat next week. "

" We could not have this conference without you all — the curation team relies heavily on audience participation. "

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

" Each of these speakers shares career defining experiences scaling design organizations large and small. "

" It's okay to try and mess up your OKRs in the first few quarters and learn from it. "

" 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. "

" If you have more ops people than designers, you risk chaos and underappreciation of what ops actually delivers. "

" If you want to take part in the gifs, laughs, jokes, questions, and links to resources, join us on #deogenerall Slack channel. "

" Technical difficulties happen, so please use hashtag.deo help within our Slack channel or email for support. "

" Man, oh man, what an incredible few days of learning and of the community that we have all had the opportunity to discover at Design at Scale. "

" We have many breaks, and sponsor sessions usually take place during those. "

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