As design leaders, the decisions you make ripple through industries. You influence behaviour, shape products, and impact our planet's future, and now more than ever it’s critical to use this transformative power to shape a sustainable future, through design. How do you incorporate this into how you run your business and the work you do?

We’ll be exploring the power and responsibility of design leaders today to create solutions that have a minimal impact on the natural environment and consider all elements of corporate sustainability in your business operations.

Darren Morgan, Global Lead Brand Experience & Strategy at Reckitt will lead the way, exploring how designers can create a positive impact; through their own businesses and through the services they provide to clients.

Oliver Pattenden, Global Research and Insight Director at Accenture SONG will share how designers can make this information actionable for their clients – by building a greater understanding of people’s motivational drivers to adopt more sustainable lifestyle behaviours.

Nigel Morris, Global Head of Brand and Creative will join us to share a case study of how Arup is developing its strategy and brand to focus on sustainable development.

Join the DBA in person this autumn as we get under the skin of the topics everyone is talking about. Each event will provide knowledge, discussion, and insight through a mix of informative talks from industry experts, interactive sessions, and member case studies. An important part of bringing our members and the design community together face-to-face will be the chance to network and share ideas with your peers in your local area. These events are open to all team members from DBA member businesses, so bring your colleagues along. If you're interested in getting a taste of what DBA membership has to offer, join us and your peers in your local area.
