Thanks to the generous support of frog design, in conjunction with ScribeStudio, the presentations and highlights of the conference have been stored in an online archive for your use.

Design Leadership in Action:
Measuring and Building Design's Role in Achieving Business Success

The 31st International Design Management Conference

 

Conference Theme:


Businesses need to capture real value from their investments in design. Therefore, measuring the role of design and design management in achieving sustainable business success is of paramount importance. How is this done?

 

In October 2006, DMI took on this most important and challenging topic. A portfolio of experts addressed the topic from multiple points of view. DMI identified seven key categories to measure and build design’s role in business success, which include:

  •      Purchase influence / emotion

  •      Cost savings / ROI / time to market

  •      Enable strategy / new markets

  •      Corporate reputation / brand value 

  •      Enable innovation / time to market 

  •      Customer satisfaction 

  •      Good design is good for all/triple bottom line 

Each speaker addressed one or more of these key categories. The learning objective: That conference attendees discover macro and micro tools and techniques, gain perspective, and become equipped to address this topic in their work on Monday morning, and in their work for years to come.
