Background

About Marilyn Whittingham

Over the past two decades, I have specialized in developing and delivering innovative digital and user experience solutions for organizations including American Express, KPMG, Sun Life Financial and the Government of Canada. Now, as a Deloitte Partner and head of Deloitte Digital, Experience Design, I collaborate with my team of 50+ specialists, as well as local and global colleagues, to create engaging and impactful experiences. I believe the act of collaboration is critical to achieving successful outcomes. We work side by side with our clients to translate their strategic roadmaps into effective customer journeys that achieve their business objectives. This includes a data-driven design philosophy and focus on measurable results. My goal is to connect the dots between customer needs and business needs to create experience outcomes. Deloitte Digital’s solutions help people engage on mobile, desktop and other platforms for a complete omnichannel experience. While I work closely with my clients, I also believe in dedicating my time to building and empowering individuals on my team, across the firm, and outside of Deloitte. I’m a board member on TakingITGlobal, an organization focused on activating youth around the world and an advisor on the Black Professionals in Tech Network (BPTN). Recently, I became a member of the advisory committee for the Black Experience @ SickKids. The digital world is constantly changing, so being an active voice in the technology community is another passion of mine. I believe it is important for Canadians to be seen as innovators and thought leaders in the design consulting industry. I love being a keynote speaker and panelist on topics such as Inclusive Design, Data-Driven Design and Elevating Technology with Design (HCD).
