What is design? How do you design a life you love?  
Designer, educator, accomplished author and all-around amazing woman Lisa Kay Solomon tells us how she made the choices that shaped her life. We learn about taking leaps of faith from quitting varsity tennis on an ivy league team and shifting to part-time bartending to moving across the country to work at a startup after turning down a prestigious consulting job. Lisa is a passionate educator, author, speaker and thought leader focused on helping leaders learn how to be more creative, flexible and resilient in the face of increasing complexity and change. Lisa teaches at Stanford’s d. School and Singularity University and coauthored the Wall Street Journal bestseller, Moments of Impact: How to Design Strategic Conversations that Accelerate Change, and, more recently, Design a Better Business: New Tools, Skills and Mindset for Strategy and Innovation.
