Strategy & Biz Day
Description
You've shipped work you were proud of and watched it disappear. Good research, solid craft, clean execution. And still, nothing. The onboarding flow that tested well but users abandon anyway. The feature that is logically sound but generates no conversation. The product that works everywhere and resonates nowhere.
The problem isn't quality. Most teams design for the user inside the product while missing everything happening outside it. People are looking for things that feel real, not just functional. Culture is being written and rewritten daily, and most of what gets shipped ignores this entirely. The gap between "works well" and "lands well" is where most good design quietly fails.
This workshop teaches Designing for Resonance: the skill of reading what is happening outside your product and letting it shape your decisions. Participants work through structured scenarios designed to surface what most teams miss, building the instinct through practice rather than theory. The session isn't about your product. It's about developing a new kind of design sensitivity, one that treats culture as a material, not a backdrop.
You'll leave with a resonance audit you can run on any project before it ships: questions to ask before shipping, cultural signals to track outside the product, and a framework for pressure testing whether the work will actually land with the people it's meant for.
Who is it for?
Designers, product leads, and builders who are tired of shipping work that should have landed but did not. For people who are ready to connect their design practice to what is happening in culture, not just what is in the backlog, and who want the instinct and the toolkit to make that connection stick.
