Take Chances, Make Mistakes, and Get Messy!

Learning How to Learn from Your Mistakes
Lauren will talk about why allowing ourselves to make mistakes is more important than ever and how she has learned to make sure she is learning each time she makes one. Owning her mistakes and reframing them as opportunities to learn has made her a better designer, a better leader, and a more resilient, happy human.
Lauren Armstrong | Design Capability Lead @ Accenture

About Practice Makes
Practice Makes is a meet-up series for creative-minded folks in the broader tech and design community. Every other month we’ll fill in the blank with a refreshing, offbeat theme that ties together that event’s agenda. An evening at Practice Makes includes a few short talks from experts in the field, some low-key activities to keep the creative energy flowing, and maybe a surprise or two. Speakers run the gamut of disciplines: designers, strategists, developers, and more! We hope everyone walks away with new ideas, tactical tools to take back to work, and friendly new connections.
