How to Prompt Like a Designer: Learn How to Get Better Results From AI

Careers today aren’t just shaped by what you build but by how distinctly you think. As AI lowers the barrier to execution, more people can ship faster than ever before. But that also means more work looks the same. Similar products. Similar portfolios. Similar ideas. The professionals who stand out won’t just be the fastest... they’ll be the ones with a clear point of view.
In this session, Kathy will explore how developing a distinct design perspective, and knowing how to leverage AI intentionally, can become a powerful driver of career growth.
Drawing from her experience as a designer and founder, Kathy will show how these skills go beyond aesthetics: influencing how you communicate ideas, differentiate your work, and create opportunities.
You’ll learn:
👉 How to develop a design point of view that helps your work stand out in a crowded market
👉 How to use AI as a tool for sharper thinking, not just faster output
👉 How strong visual and product thinking can elevate your portfolio, storytelling, and career trajectory
Through practical examples and workflows, you’ll see how these capabilities compound over time, helping you become more recognizable, more in-demand, and more effective in whatever you build.
Whether you’re a founder, operator, or creative, this session will help you think more intentionally about how your skills translate into long-term career leverage. Because in a world where everyone has access to the same tools, your edge is how you use them and how clearly your perspective comes through.
