Design Leadership: Tony Tudor

Tony is a Design and Product Strategy Leader with 18+ years driving digital transformation, customer discovery, and product design across enterprise platforms and high-growth startups. He is the founder and Head of Experience & Design at Designborough, where he partners with enterprise and startup clients — including ProFinda, SkillShape Labs, and ConnectCritical — to transform product organizations into empowered, discovery-led teams within the Product Operating Model.

Before founding Designborough, Tony built and led design organizations at enterprise scale: as VP of UX & Strategy at Citi, he built and led a 26-person multidisciplinary design organization across 20+ high-visibility business units; as Department Head, Product Design at BBM, he led a core team of 5 while co-leading a broader 22-person design organization spanning UX research and design systems.

Tony has a long-standing interest in psychology and behavioral design — the belief that every successful product taps into how people actually think and decide, whether by design or by accident. That instinct shapes his approach: ask the right questions first, ground every decision in research, and design solutions simple enough that the experience itself needs no instructions.
