Presentation Title: Applying ResearchOps and DesignOps in globally distributed teams. 

Outline: How can we organise and manage globally distributed teams, harmonise design and research processes and tools, increase spending efficiencies, boost teams’ productivity, decrease research and design lead time, and create a OneTeam mentality? How can we foster a rapid experimentation mentality, increase our data informed, customer-backed, and insight lead approach to design across 7 regions? These were few of the challenges I faced when I started my journey in DesignOps leading the designOps for 7 teams across the globe. This talk will highlight the strategic planning and execution behind the establishment of a global DesignOps practice through a case study that will describe how we identified the priorities and executed a global roadmap and how we have been promoting an insight and research focused approach to design to empower designers and to strengthen Design’s strategic role within the company.
