Remote format

Our remote workshops are based on the success of our in-person learning principles. Our goal is help participants learn not only from our instructors, but industry experts and peers. The workshop will be a mix of short lectures, solo reflection, and group activities. It’s a highly participatory remote workshop. Participants should be prepared to participate in a quiet space with stable wifi.


Who should attend

Any creative leader or manager looking to level up the craft on their team. This includes brand, product, research and writing.
