Today, most teams possess a comprehensive understanding of the value and advantages that design systems can bring to an organization. The imperative has shifted from merely securing stakeholder endorsement to addressing the challenges associated with scaling and enhancing widespread adoption among various teams.The DS governance holds the key to solving these challenges. However, first things first. We need to understand what does the governance encompass, what are the various types of governance and which type fits best for your organization’s needs? These are the easiest questions. The real challenge starts when you realize that switching to a new governance model would require you to shift people’s mindset, make teams change their established workflows and processes and most importantly shift the perception of your responsibility as a DS designer from an individual contributor to a DS advocate and evangelist. At Copperleaf we went the whole journey and would like to share what we have discovered along the way:
