Closing Keynote:
Uncovering New Perspectives: Designing with the Addicted Mind
Zach Duenow, Global Director, Brand Building + Creative Excellence, GSK

When it comes to choosing the next critical area to develop within your company, where should your focus be? Rapid growth strategies? Design changes? Systems and processes? As Zach Duenow, GSK’s Global Director of Brand Building and Creative Excellence, explains in his thought-provoking closing keynote, the answer is far more tangible: your people.

During this high-impact one hour discussion, we’ll explore how organizations can become blinded by addictive thought patterns that don’t allow them to effectively adjust to the changing world—and how to reverse that thinking with a step-by-step program to organizational evolution.
