Ruth Ellison is the Research Director and co-founder of Propel Design, a boutique strategic research, design and delivery consultancy in Australia. She brings a deep sense of curiosity, and pragmatism, balanced with experience in digital delivery, strategy, policy and transformation across the public and private sectors.
Ruth loves working with organisations to propel their human-centred and systems-thinking approaches. She is passionate about building happy curious product teams who love solving problems and making a difference.
Outside of work, Ruth loves exploring escape rooms, especially a number of great New Zealand rooms.
As research practitioners, we tend to have more conversations about research methods, but without the skills to connect, communicate and influence our stakeholders and teams, our impact may be limited.
In this hands-on workshop, Ruth will be guiding you through a framework on how to maximise the impact of research. You’ll be working with others to share stories and brainstorm approaches and tactics. Leave this workshop with tools you can bring to your team to affect change straight away.
