Join our Leadership Summit, a special edition of the Service Design Days organised for and by design leaders on Sept 15 and 16 in Barcelona
About this Event

Join us for the inaugural Service Design Days Leadership Summit, a place to convene with leaders in design to make lasting change for the profession while finding and strengthening your voice as a leader.

The Summit brings together creative leaders from different industries to discuss the challenges they are facing and to harness their collective knowledge and experience to address today’s and tomorrow’s critical issues. Now more than ever, it's time to stand up, take action, and make change happen. The challenges we face as leaders can often seem overwhelming. It's important to remember that we have the power to drive meaningful change within our organisations, communities and the world around us. We must learn and feel comfortable manoeuvring through the complexities of our organisations and advocating for the value of design. We must build relationships with key stakeholders and speak up for what we believe in. By doing so, we can ensure design decisions are made with the best interests of people, planet and profit in mind.

This is why we organise a special Service Design Days edition for creative leaders. Not online, but physically in Barcelona, to have as many inspiring encounters as possible.


The program

The SDD Leadership Summit spans four tracks programmed through the lens of creative leadership, each with an immersive and interactive set-up. All tracks are a carefully curated selection of sessions and activities. All sessions are plenary and address different aspects of how to become a leader of the future. The tracks are highly interactive and participative, and look at key aspects via a combination of listening and doing in which everyone is involved:

  • Organising for change (Friday morning, Sept 15)
  • Designing for what’s next (Friday afternoon, Sept 15)
  • Leading in complexity (Saturday morning, Sept 16)
  • Introspecting leadership (Saturday afternoon, Sept 16)

What’s included
  • Leadership training - 12 hours of creative and design leadership training.
  • Leadership coaching - small group coaching sessions on specific topics (sign up in advance).
  • Networking - several moments throughout the days to meet, chat with and learn from other design leaders from different industries and from around the world.
  • Food and drinks - coffee breaks, lunches, refreshments, and networking drinks on both days.
  • Certification - you will receive an official certificate from the Service Design College for joining this Leadership Summit.
  • Hotel stay (optional) - if you wish, we can fully serve you and book two nights accommodation in a great hotel near the venue.

Take your leadership to the next level with the Service Design Days Leadership Summit in Barcelona!
