THE CONTENT DESIGN LEADERS UNCONFERENCE You set the agenda.
A free 90-minute session where content design leaders bring the topics that matter most — and we figure them out together.
Friday, May 15, 2026 | 12:00–1:30 PM ET | Virtual (Zoom)
Bring your toughest questions.
Connect with peers who get it.
Leave with clarity, not just conversation.
Not a conference. An unconference.
An unconference.
This isn't a conference with pre-set talks. It's an unconference — which means you decide what we talk about.
Here's how it works: everyone arrives with the questions they're actually sitting with. We surface the topics in real time, vote on what matters most, and spend our time in real conversation — not listening to slides.
Past Content Design Leaders sessions have tackled everything from surviving reorgs to building influence without authority to figuring out what AI actually means for your team. The unconference format takes that energy and opens it up.
No presentations. No panels. Just the conversations content design leaders don't get to have anywhere else.
Who should join?
This session is for content design leaders — whether that means you manage a team, lead through influence, or are the only person advocating for content at your company.
If any of these sound familiar, this is for you:
→ You're navigating AI's impact on your team and your own role, and you don't have anyone to think it through with
→ You're leading content design in an org that doesn't fully understand what it is
→ You're making decisions about team structure, scope, or strategy without a playbook
→ You want to learn how other leaders are handling the same challenges you face
Make connections with peers from companies like these.
You might be isolated, but you’re not alone.
Make the connections you’ve been missing.
Come for perspectives, leave with validation.
Join the unconference. No prep required.

-
It's an event where the attendees set the agenda — not the organizers. Instead of sitting through pre-planned talks, you arrive with the questions and challenges that are actually on your mind. We surface topics together, vote on what the room cares about most, and spend our time in real conversation. Think of it as the best hallway conversation at a conference, except it's the whole event.
-
Not at all. Bring yourself and the intention to connect, collab on some problem-solving, or just to find out how your peers are handling all of today’s challenges.
-
Since much of the session will be interactive and held in breakouts, we won’t be sharing a recording. Instead, we’ll share out a summary of the topics and outcomes on LinkedIn and in the guest space in our app.
