Design Leadership Services
Enterprise Design Leadership Services
From AI strategy and enterprise systems to team leadership and executive storytelling — here's how I help organizations turn human-centered design into measurable growth.
Human-Centered Growth Design
Every interface decision is a business decision. I audit your product experience end-to-end, identify friction points that cost you conversions, and redesign flows that make users happier while driving measurable growth. This isn't about dark patterns—it's about aligning what's good for users with what's good for revenue. When users love the experience, retention, NPS, and lifetime value all follow.
Who this is for
Product teams struggling with conversion, retention, or user satisfaction metrics.
Deliverables
- UX audit with prioritized opportunity map
- Redesigned user flows with A/B test recommendations
- Growth metrics dashboard and KPI framework
- Design-to-revenue impact analysis
Enterprise AI Strategy
Most AI initiatives fail because they start with technology instead of user needs. I help organizations identify the highest-impact opportunities for AI integration—where it genuinely transforms user experiences rather than just automating existing workflows. My roadmaps connect AI capabilities to business outcomes, giving your leadership team confidence that every dollar invested moves the needle.
Who this is for
Enterprise leaders evaluating AI investment or struggling with AI adoption.
Deliverables
- AI opportunity assessment and prioritization matrix
- Strategic roadmap with phased implementation plan
- ROI projections and business case for executive buy-in
- Vendor-agnostic technology recommendations
Design Systems at Scale
Brilliant one-off designs don't survive enterprise complexity. I build design systems that scale across teams, products, regions, and years—reducing development costs by 30-50% while ensuring consistency. My systems are built for AI-readiness: structured for automated generation, dynamic theming, and intelligent component recommendations. The ROI compounds over time.
Who this is for
Organizations with 3+ product teams, inconsistent UI, or high design-to-dev handoff costs.
Deliverables
- Component library architecture and governance model
- Token-based design system with documentation
- Migration strategy for legacy products
- Team adoption playbook and training
Building Design Organizations
Design teams that operate as a service desk will always be undervalued. I help organizations build design as a strategic function—with hiring frameworks that attract top talent, career ladders that retain them, and cross-functional integration models that give designers a seat at the decision-making table. The result: design teams that drive business outcomes, not just deliver pixels.
Who this is for
CTOs, VPs of Product, or design leaders building or scaling their design org.
Deliverables
- Design org structure and role definitions
- Hiring framework with interview rubrics
- Career ladder and growth framework
- Cross-functional collaboration playbook
Executive Storytelling & Buy-In
The best design work dies without executive buy-in. I've spent decades translating design value into the language that boards and C-suites understand—revenue impact, cost reduction, competitive positioning, and risk mitigation. I build the business cases, craft the narratives, and create the decks that get design initiatives funded. Because design leadership isn't just about taste—it's about influence.
Who this is for
Design leaders who need to secure budget, justify headcount, or champion design at the executive level.
Deliverables
- Executive-ready business cases for design initiatives
- ROI frameworks connecting UX metrics to revenue
- Board-level presentation decks
- Stakeholder alignment workshop
From Strategy to Shipped Product
Most consultants hand you a strategy deck and walk away. Through Pixelmojo, I take AI-powered products from concept to deployed software—fixed scope, fixed timeline, and you own everything we build. Whether it's a lead intelligence system, multi-agent orchestration platform, or custom AI product, we ship production-ready code on your infrastructure. Strategy without execution is just a pretty document.
Who this is for
Teams that need AI-powered products built and deployed, not just planned.
Deliverables
- Full product development from concept to deployment
- AI-powered product architecture
- Production-ready code on your infrastructure
- 60-day fixed-scope delivery with full code ownership
What does a Fractional Head of Design do?
A Fractional Head of Design provides senior design leadership on a part-time or contract basis — typically 2-4 days per week for 3-6 months. You get the strategic impact of a VP/Head of Design without the full-time salary and equity commitment. I embed with your team, set design strategy, build processes, mentor designers, and drive executive alignment. It's ideal for companies between $5M–$100M revenue that need design leadership but aren't ready for a full-time executive hire.
How much does design consulting cost?
Strategic advisory engagements start at $5,000/month for ongoing retainers and $10,000/month for Fractional Head of Design roles. Through Pixelmojo, product development ranges from $15,000 for custom AI projects to $25,000–$40,000 for comprehensive lead intelligence systems like Vector. All Pixelmojo builds are fixed scope with full code ownership — no surprises.
