What You’ll Learn
- How to design your org chart for growth

You started your design business because you love design—not because you wanted to spend your days buried in payroll, HR, and management challenges. But if you’re serious about scaling, hiring, and leading, you need a structure that allows you to step out of the daily grind and into the role of visionary.
This the live virtual option. You will receive your Zoom link and more information a week before the workshop.
Hosted by Laura Umansky and Melissa Grove, the co-founders of DesignDash, this immersive experience gives you the tools, clarity, and confidence to grow your team strategically—without sacrificing profit, creativity, or your sanity.
Whether you’re making your very first hire or leading a team of ten, you’ll leave with the exact frameworks, templates, and strategies to scale your firm sustainably and successfully.
Why Attend?
You’ll leave this workshop with more than just inspiration—you’ll leave with a concrete plan and the support to carry it out.
And you won’t do it alone. You’ll be surrounded by a group of designers who are just as driven, creative, and committed to growth as you are. Together, we’ll build not just businesses, but lives we truly love.
What You’ll Walk Away With
- A draft org chart and accountability chart customized for your firm
- A job description template for your next hire
- A salary + fee calculator to keep your profits strong
- A culture audit + onboarding checklist you can implement immediately
- Clear, confident decisions about your next hire and how to make it happen
This isn’t theory—it’s the real, behind-the-scenes work of running a profitable, joyful, and enduring design business.
