About Accelerate Design
Welcome to the new standard in design leadership training
For designers, career success requires business skills we aren't taught. We learn some skills, like stakeholder management, through risky and inefficient trial-and-error. Other key skills, like data science, we rarely study at all.
I founded Accelerate Design to bring experienced designers the business skills that took me 20-years and a U.C. Berkeley MBA to figure out.
Our mission is to transform the design industry by turning designers into indispensable product leaders.
Our courses help designers and design leaders cross the inflection point where design craft meets business, providing the strategic frameworks to successfully ship your best design work and support your team.
With over 10,000 designers trained globally, I am excited for you to join this movement.
See you inside,
