Design Leadership Role Prep with Karthik V Meenaakshisundaram

Who this is for: Senior ICs or leads targeting their first leadership title, or already leading informally and trying to make it official.

What we'll cover:

• How to talk about the scope you've already been carrying, even without the title
• Positioning your story for the specific kind of leadership role you want (design led, product adjacent, or founder's office track)
• Where your narrative is underselling you, and where it's overreaching
• Compensation and scope negotiation, if relevant

Prep: Bring the specific roles or company type you're targeting. This session works better when it's not generic.
