One of the big trends in SaaS is a push to prepare for the next generation of AI advancements. Technology leaders are pursuing initiatives to consolidate and re-platform their organizations, ensuring they have a solid foundation to help them succeed. Design Systems are a crucial piece of this puzzle for every organization because they are the foundation on which AI-supported design and personalization will be built. Getting your organization from where it is today to where it needs to be is not easy, and knowing where to start is difficult. To help give leaders a sense of where they stand and where they need to go, we created the Design Systems Organizational Readiness Survey. Based on years of experience building and scaling successful design systems, this 3-minute survey can help you understand where your organization stands and what it needs to do to move forward. 🚀 Take The Survey 🚀 https://lnkd.in/gzPRP26n
