Chicago Camps hosts irregularly scheduled Tent Talks with people from all across the User Experience Design community, and beyond. Who really likes limits, anyway–If it’s a cool idea, we’d love to hear about it and share it!
What is a Tent Talk? That’s a great question, we’d love to tell you. Tent Talks are short-form in nature, generally lasting from 10-20 minutes (ish) in a recorded format–we like to think of them as “S’mores-sized content” because that’s pretty on-brand. Tent Talks can be a presentation on a topic, a live Q&A session about the work we do, or the work around the work we do, or really just about anything–we don’t want to limit ourselves, or you.

In this Tent Talks session, Tyler Quackenbush walks us through his unique path from UX design into project management, offering a refreshing look at how these roles can blend. With deep insights into Agile workflows, Tyler outlines how design thinking doesn’t just belong in design—it strengthens teams when it carries into leadership and collaboration. His philosophy of “sharing before we’re ready” and focusing on feedback over perfection offers a clear, grounded approach to building more adaptive, creative teams.
Tyler emphasizes that agility and creativity don’t have to clash. Instead, when you build a culture that values iteration, early input, and shared problem-solving, you unlock momentum. This session isn’t about frameworks or buzzwords—it’s about practical, human-centered shifts that help teams collaborate better, work smarter, and keep the spark of creativity alive even in fast-moving environments.
