**Who Wants to be a F&^%ing Design Leader?** Fresh off their high-energy takeover at **The Design Leadership Roundtable**, the duo you didn’t know you needed, **David Bacon** and **Amir Ansari**, are bringing their hit gameshow to Melbourne Design Thinking. Let’s be real: transition into leadership is messy, loud, and full of questions no one actually answers in textbooks. On **May 14th**, we’re ditching the dry slide decks for a fast-paced, interactive gameshow that puts your instincts to the test. **What’s on the line?** Too many talented designers hit a ceiling not because they lack skill, but because they’re playing by the wrong set of rules. In this session, David and Amir will help you navigate the chaos of leadership with a "no-BS" approach. **What you’ll experience:** * **The Hot Seat:** Watch (or join!) as we tackle the real-world dilemmas that make or break a design leader * **Strategy over Guesswork:** Move past overthinking and learn how to make decisions that actually move the needle for your team and career. * **Identifying Your Edge:** Pinpoint the specific leadership patterns and "unfair advantages" that set the greats apart. * **Visibility Without the Noise:** Learn how to signal credibility and value to stakeholders without just being the loudest person in the room. **The Details** * **Date:** 14th May * **Host:** Melbourne Design Thinking Meetup * **Special Guests:** David Bacon & Amir Ansari Whether you’re already leading a team or just wondering if the "F&^%ing Design Leadership" life is for you, this is the roadmap you’ve been looking for, delivered with a lot of laughs and full fluff. **Are you ready to play?**
