What’s changing about leadership—and what’s staying human?

‍As AI reshapes how we think, collaborate, and lead, teams everywhere are reimagining what it means to build, create, and connect.

Join Julie Norvaisas (Dscout) and a panel of design and research leaders: Kassie Chaney, Jose Coronado, Ryan Leffel and Noam Segal for a forward-looking conversation on the leadership lessons shaping 2026.

Whether you’re a team lead, practitioner, or someone charting your own path, this hour will help you reflect on the past year and plan for the next.

During this discussion, the group explores...

• How leaders are adapting in the age of AI—and what’s next.
• What “blurred roles” and team refactoring look like in practice.
• How cross-functional fluency and automation are changing the work.
• How to amplify strategy, advocacy, and humanity in every role.
