" Learning is a marathon, not a sprint, especially in the context of online conferences. "

" The waters of operations can feel incredibly murky and the path forward may not always be clear. "

" Language matters—make your OKRs user-centric and customer-focused to avoid them feeling like overhead. "

" The future of civic design will be localized, designed for and by communities rather than dictated top-down. "

" Lauren Cantor works with companies to create new business strategies by tackling human-centered design. "

" Automation frees us up to do more for the organization, but if overdone, it can strip away the human aspect critical to culture. "

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

" If you’re not in our Slack channel, you’re missing out on so many big parts of the party. "
