Amsterdam is not centered on workshops, it is a space for design leaders to learn directly from one another. Jasper and Marlene, both senior design leaders, will act as coaches and facilitators throughout the event. They will guide each segment, moderate conversations and share their experience when it adds value. During the Peer Circles, participants will engage in small group discussions grounded in real practices, followed by focused 1:1 exchanges. The coaches will be present to support meaningful dialogue, help groups go deeper and create the conditions for new perspectives and insights to emerge.
