Michael Leigh’s Expertise I advocate for Human Centered Design, emphasising accessibility, inclusion, user experience and digital disruption. My commitment lies in implementing a Human-Centered Design approach to guide and develop digital teams, ensuring success in both customer and business outcomes. As a proactive leader, I firmly believe in hands-on collaboration with my team. I bring extensive experience in managing teams ranging from as small as 3 to as large as 25, spanning multiple states and countries. My passion lies in building and leading high-performing teams, with a specific focus on digital capability, launching new products to market, and executing major campaigns, promotions, and product offerings. I am involved in the entire process, from ideation to outcome, encompassing research, design, usability testing, implementation, and adoption across all customer segments. Notable achievements include sitting on several Senior Leadership Teams & receiving several awards within some of Australia’s largest organisations, leading multiple CMS migration projects, whilst building out the front-end design systems for multiple brands (40+) & being part of the team that designed a product from the ground up that raised 30mil AUD (Australia’s largest capital raise, pre-launch). Bridging creativity with commercials is a strength of mine, demonstrated by a proven track record in delivering key corporate KPIs through design and usability. I also take pride in being a guardian of culture and talent, leading by example to establish an open, collaborative environment. I identify and nurture talent while fostering diversity to bring out the best in design teams and other disciplines. Passionate about digital design and UX, I engage with the industry at design industry meet-ups, sharing digital best practices across various sectors. I've also presented at various meet-ups & industry conferences. Additionally, I'm an industry mentor at RMIT University, supporting the future skills program for students in their respective UX and UI Design courses.
