Michal Butkiewicz
Director of Design • Hippo Insurance

Warsaw, Poland

I’m the Director of Design at Hippo Insurance, leading a team of product designers, graphic designers & UX writers. Before this, I grew a team from 3 to 15 in just a year. With several years in design leadership, I’ve seen both wins and challenges. I’ve noticed new team leads and managers don’t always get the support they need, so I want to share some hard-earned lessons to help you avoid the same mistakes.
