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

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

" There’s no need to take any notes, because we have sketch notes, session notes, recordings available on Rosenfeld Media website. "

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

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

" There is no need to take notes. Our session notes, resources, videos, and slide decks will all be shared on the website. "

" Please respect our code of conduct to ensure a welcoming and safe space for all attendees. "

" There is no need to take notes over the next few days. We have dedicated sketch notes and session resources. "

" 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. "

" You’re going to get the importance of empathy to the bottom line. "

" Junior engineers often resent having to create OKRs that feel disconnected from their day-to-day work. "

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

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

" The cohort experience is one of the highest rated things because you get to meet new people from different companies. "

" We have some truly phenomenal sketch notebooks, so you don’t have to worry about taking any notes on your own. "

" The official time zone of this conference is Pacific time. "

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