" To succeed now, designers must be lifelong learners ready to rethink and re-understand constantly - Christopher. "

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

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

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

" When I think about resilience, I think about flexibility, like trees that bend in strong winds instead of breaking — that starts with mindset and communication. "

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

" Trust is fragile with designers; without clear communication, metrics can feel like micromanagement - Dave Malu. "

" We have the entire Rosenfeld Media staff on hand to support you throughout this conference. "

" We literally want to advance this field by creating space for really good professional conversations to happen. "

" This is the same conference in so many good ways — good ways are that it’s resilient and there’s a certain steadiness. "

" The primary way to convene with other attendees is through our Slack channel. "

" If you have a question for one of the speakers, put it in the specific thread associated with the talk or it will get lost. "

" Sponsors bring so much color and so much light into the community. "

" We want you to leave feeling like all those missed Slack messages and emails are worth it. "

" If any of those adjectives do not apply to how you’re feeling right now, we wanna know. "

" We are on our third and final day of Advancing Research 2023. "

" We could not do this conference without our incredible sponsors who spend a lot of effort thinking about ways to enrich our programming. "

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

" You don’t want to miss out on the sponsor sessions — they’re free and high quality, not sales pitches. "

" Sponsor sessions are completely free and offer content just as valuable as the main program sessions. "

" There’s no need to take notes because session notes, videos, and decks will be shared promptly on the conference site. "

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

" Slack is the heart and soul of this conference — that’s where you ask questions, get help, and connect with others. "

" Please read our code of conduct. Every participant should feel safe, included, and welcome. "

" Through the expertise of our speakers and your engagement, we forge the future of our industry. "

" When teams are connected to real strategic missions and own their key results, OKRs become positive. "

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

" This is our third and final day of the design operation Summit 2021. "

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

" Sponsor sessions are free for anyone, whether you paid to attend or not, so invite your coworkers, friends, and family. "

" 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. "

" Yesterday was a lot of fun, but today is going to be even more fun. "

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