Applications to join us for the March intake of The CDO School Collective are now open!
The CDO School Collective is a year-long, invitation-only learning network for senior designers and leaders. This isn't another community or "networking opportunity." This is quarterly reflection practice with a small group of peers from outside your normal circles. The goals of the program are to help you:
- Get business savvy
- Connect the dots between design and business
- Position design to win at your company
- Commit to a quarterly reflection practice
- Develop new skills and grow your network at the same time
- Apply lessons directly to your personal challenges and goals
The Collective is formatted with your schedule in mind, prioritizes direct application over theory, and provides unique lessons you won't find anywhere else. Along with our programming, you get weekly live events, the CDO School Toolkit, and a private portal to participate with the option to remain anonymous if you choose.
Here's what a few members say about learning with us:
"This has been the most valuable resource I've had in the last 5 years. It's phenomenal!"
Glau Czarnota, Design Operation Lead, ANZ
"This is exactly what I needed right now, packed with all the things nobody tells you about and packaged in realistic contexts!"
Ariba Jahan, Head of Transformation, Anomoly
"This has given me the time and space to mature my perspectives. More importantly, I think Iโm healing here."
Carolina Tod, Design Manager, Mercado Livre
"In short, CDO School is the best money I have spent on my career."
Gene Moy, Senior Manager, UX aPriori Technologies
