In a world inundated with products and services vying for attention, what truly sets something apart? What makes us not just appreciate but deeply cherish certain designs? The answer lies in the essence of what we’d like to call “Lovable Design.”
Lovable Design transcends mere functionality or aesthetics; it delves into the realm of emotional connection. It’s about infusing products, interfaces, and experiences with a sense of warmth, empathy, and delight. It’s the art of designing with heart.
So, what are the key ingredients of Lovable Design? Join us for an unforgettable journey in unlocking the transformative power of Lovable Design together!

About this event
In the design industry, much of the attention is often given to junior and senior roles, leaving the pivotal role of middle managers largely overlooked. However, middle managers are the backbone of the industry, adapting and learning on the job, and often being the most capable of tackling the daily challenges while seizing emerging opportunities.
Through Conversations For Change (CFC), we hope that you can join us to witness first-hand coaching conversations with experienced professionals, including ICF-certified coaches. The experience can help middle managers navigate the delicate balance between managing day-to-day operations and leading with vision and innovation.
Conversations For Change: Middle Managers – The Unspoken Expectation is an event dedicated to explore the distinction between managing and leading, highlighting how middle managers can evolve into effective leaders through coaching for development. Participants will gain insights into strategies for managing stress, fostering innovation, and enhancing their impact in their roles.
