Anna Miars

Senior Manager, Strategy & User Experience

Anna leads site strategy and UX for American Express’s content experiences, with a focus on building customer journeys that simplify complexity and build trust.

01
Shipping the Vision Within Guardrails

How teams stay customer-centric and innovative while operating inside real world risk, legal, and compliance guardrails, and how the best leaders treat those guardrails as inputs that sharpen the work.
02
The Art of Execution

Practical tactics for turning strategy into delivery: aligning stakeholders, earning trust, managing cross-functional decision-making, and keeping work moving when timelines, approvals, and dependencies get complicated.
03
Startup Agility vs. Enterprise Scale

Lessons on maintaining product velocity and clarity of ownership while integrating with massive banking ecosystems, including what changes (and what shouldn’t) as scale and governance ramp up.
