About the event
How do you pitch the benefits of design to C-level?
This is one of the most common questions we get from our community. Designers often struggle to explain the value of design to C-level, who care about completely different things than they do. So we thought – why keep guessing? Let's go straight to the source.
We invited the CEO of Ogilvy EMEA, Patou Nuytemans, to sit down with us on April 22nd at 3pm BST for a raw, unfiltered live interview about how CEOs actually think and what they expect from designers when it comes to driving business forward.
Want to change how your senior leadership receives your design proposals? This is your opportunity to learn the language of business directly from someone who speaks it fluently.
You will learn:
How to build a case for your initiatives to get CEOs approval
Which numbers and KPIs CEOs care about
How to pitch having design in the boardroom to your C-level leadership
Which mistakes and learnings Patou had throughout her career
