What if your next competitive advantage wasn't a new product, but a new kind of leader? Doug Powell believes designers and design thinkers have the skills business needs most right now, the ability to connect human needs with strategic goals, to navigate uncertainty, and to see opportunities others miss. In a world of rapid technological change and economic contraction, that perspective can be the difference between falling behind and defining what's next. Doug has spent his career proving it. At IBM, he helped build one of the largest corporate design programs in history, hiring over 1,000 designers, embedding human-centered design across global teams, and aligning design thinking with enterprise strategy. He's led at the highest levels of AIGA, advised Fortune 100 leaders, and now coaches executives on how to integrate design into the core of their decision-making. This is an essential time for design and designers. In the face of unprecedented global challenges and a rapidly evolving technological landscape, the core skills of human-centered design, empathy, curiosity, inclusion, collaboration, and craft, are needed more than ever. Doug believes designers are made for this moment. For business leaders, Doug's perspective is a wake-up call: designers and design thinkers are not just executors of creative work, they are catalysts for innovation, culture change, and long-term growth. Research from McKinsey shows that companies excelling in design outperform industry peers by up to 2x in revenue growth and shareholder returns. A 2023 InVision report found that 92% of high-maturity design organizations report a strong connection between design and business strategy. Doug argues that in a time of technological disruption and market uncertainty, leaders who integrate human-centered design into the decision-making core of their companies will be the ones defining what's next. In this conversation, you'll hear about: + Why companies that integrate design at the leadership level grow faster and create greater shareholder value +Lessons from building IBM's global design program from scratch in under four years +How human-centered design can break down silos and speed decision-making across functions +Why downturns are a prime opportunity to invest in innovation and talent +The lasting influence of Tibor Kalman and the responsibility of design to challenge complacency +How AIGA builds leadership capacity across industries and the value of giving back +Why designers will be at the center of AI's most transformative breakthroughs, and what leaders should do now Whether you're a CEO, CMO, or innovation lead, this episode will show you how to harness design as a strategic advantage, not just for better products, but for stronger teams, sharper strategy, and sustainable growth.

Send us a textIn this episode of the Strong By Design podcast, Coach Chris Wilson sits down with Coach Zach Zenios—licensed neurosomatic therapist, yoga instructor, US Marine and lifelong movement coach—to talk all things shoulder health, healing, and Indian clubs. We kick things off by exploring Zach's unique background and the origin of his passion for Indian club training. From the anatomy of the human shoulder to the difference between raw strength and true functionality, Zach breaks down what most people get wrong about shoulder training. He also shares his personal “2-step formula” for shoulder pain relief, plus the overlooked connection between relaxation, barefoot training, and nervous system reset. Around the 30-minute mark, we get into aesthetics, movement quality, and how club training actually builds a more capable, athletic-looking body. As the conversation deepens, Zach opens up about the creation of the Ageless Shoulders program, what makes it different, and why Indian clubs offer a timeless solution for stiff, aging joints. We even dive into his bold personal experiments—like dry fasting—and how they've impacted his recovery, energy, and mindset. Whether you're in pain, getting older, or just want to train smarter, this episode delivers the knowledge and inspiration to help you move, feel, and live better. Time Stamps0:43 - Welcome to the 'Strong by Design' podcast!3:02 - Get to know today's special guest, neurosomatic therapist and yoga coach Zach Zenios 10:00 - The power of Indian club training 12:32 - How unique the human shoulder is 16:07 – The importance of good dynamic movement 18:24 - Coach Zach reveals his Indian clubs training secret 21:30 - Discover the right way to train shoulders - no isolation! 25:22 - Are you strong or just muscular? 28:50 - Aesthetic gains through club training 32:33 – Understanding relaxation vs. tension 37:02 – Why Indian clubs offer unique benefits 42:00 – Pros and cons of doing a dead hang 44:53 - What's the 2-step formula for shoulder pain 47:48 – How going barefoot can benefit you 49:39 - Why consistency is the key 51:42 – A closer look at Coach Zach's routine 57:38 – Beyond the basics: Detailed Indian club benefits 1:03:48 – Inside the Ageless Shoulders program 1:09:13 – Coach Zach's experience with a 5-day dry fast 1:11:58 - How to stay connected with Coach Zach 1:12:28 - Please share and leave ratings & reviews for the SBD podcast! Resources:Ageless Shoulders Connect with Coach Zach:Instagram Connect with Coach Chris:InstagramGrab your ACV Gummies, Buy One Get One FREE at CriticalBench.com, look for 'ACV Sale' in top right of page.Support the showConnect w/ CriticalBench: Youtube Facebook Instagram CriticalBench.com StrongByDesignPodcast.com

Most designers are comfortable in the world of known problems—we talk to users, gather insights, iterate based on feedback. But what happens when you're designing for a future that doesn't exist yet? When you're creating products for people who haven't been born, or technologies that might not emerge for years? Today's guest has spent decades designing for the future, a space where design specs are ambiguous at best. Nick Foster led design at Google X where he worked on over 200 moonshot projects, from flying machines to nuclear fusion. Nick has written a provocative new book that provides helpful guidance on how we might approach designing for the unknown. In Could, Should, Might, Don't: How We Think About the Future, he argues that we've fallen into predictable patterns of thinking that are actually making us worse at anticipating what's coming next. We chat with Nick about why most futures thinking falls into one of four problematic categories, and the importance of ethics in designing for the future. We also talk about the hidden dangers of "numeric fiction" and data-driven predictions, what he learned working with PhD scientists who had never met a designer, and why Silicon Valley's obsession with KPIs is killing long-term thinking. Bio Nick Foster RDI is a Futures Designer based in Oakland, California. He has spent his career exploring the future for globally renowned technology companies including Apple, Google, Nokia, Sony and Dyson. As Head of Design at Google X, he led a team of designers, researchers and prototypers developing nascent technologies such as brain-controlled computer interfaces, intelligent robotics, stratospheric internet balloons and neighborhood-scale nuclear fusion. Despite the ambitious nature of much of Nick's work, he's well known for his down-to-earth and occasionally irreverent approach to the future, and in 2013 he coined the term Future Mundane. In 2018, Fortune magazine described him as ‘one of the world's foremost leaders in speculative design' and in 2021 he was awarded the title Royal Designer for Industry - the highest accolade for a British designer - in recognition of his significant contributions to the discipline. He's also an accomplished writer and public speaker, producing multiple books and sharing his thinking about the future with audiences across the globe. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This ad-supported episode is available to everyone.

Every superhero has an arch-nemesis (or two). Batman's got the Joker. Spidey's got the Green Goblin. Superman? Lex Luthor. But you? You've got five freelancing villains quietly sabotaging your business. There's no maniacal laughter or evil stare. They're not wearing capes or threatening to destroy the world with a giant-ass laser. These villains are more subtle: “Just one more YouTube video…” “I'll do those reachouts tomorrow…” “I need to fix my portfolio first…” And before you know it? They've stolen another week of progress. If there's one thing I've learned working 1 on 1 with hundreds of creative freelancers, it's this: You don't rise to the level of your strategy…You fall to the level of your patterns. I've seen clients with a flawless strategy that they're trying to execute… And yet they can't get out of their own damn way to execute it. Because when things get hard, or new, or uncomfortable… We default down to whatever survival pattern we've always used to cope. In this week's episode, I'm joined by one of the Clients by Design coaches, Josh Love, to call out all 5 of those freelancing villains (and how to finally defeat them). We'll dive into: how these patterns form how they masquerade as productivity what to do when you catch yourself spiraling. The first step to defeating your particular villain is knowing which one you're dealing with. For full show notes, visit https://6figurecreative.com/376

Benoit Berthoux on the opportunities and risks of founding a startup in the age of AIIn early 2023 Benoit Berthoux saw that generative AI was expanding possibilities for how people work. Benoit wanted to develop a tool that implemented seamlessly into their workflows instead of adding yet another tool. From this Mindy was born, helping people harness the benefits of generative AI without having to become prompt engineers. This week on Catalyst, Benoit joins Tammy to talk about how the newest technology is being used to meet users where they're at. They discuss the promise of new tech and the rise of creative startups. They also discuss some of the challenges of operating a startup right now - namely that things are moving so fast it can be hard to keep up.

U drugom delu razgovora sa Milovanom Dekićem otkrivamo kako izgleda svet korisničkog istraživanja u industriji video igara i kako se ta disciplina razvijala u Nordeusu tokom protekle decenije. Milovan nas vodi kroz svoje početke, potragu za znanjem i praksama u vreme kada gotovo da nije bilo izvora, saradnju sa britanskim Player Research timom i prve eksperimente testiranja igara. Govori o tome kako se postavljaju i proveravaju hipoteze da bi se unapredilo igračko iskustvo, kako se beleže i tumače reakcije igrača – od fokusa do zevanja – i kako se pronalazi ravnoteža između zabave, profita i dugoročne relevantnosti. Kroz razgovor se otvaraju teme kulturnih razlika među igračima, različitih gejmerskih motivacija i načina na koji agilni timovi, vođeni znatiželjom i podacima u realnom vremenu, prilagođavaju proizvode milionima ljudi širom sveta. Ovo je priča o spajanju sociologije, psihologije, dizajna i tehnologije u stvaranju igara koje ljudi žele da igraju godinama. O čemu smo pričali: - Najava razgovora - Početak razgovora - Biznis modeli igara - Testiranje u razvoju igara - Prilagođavanje igre korisnicima - Globalno prilagođavanje igre - Biznis i profit u igrama - Design thinking - Radionice i treninzi - Procena dobrih ideja - Pametno skaliranje - Karte za učenje - AI i Design thinking Podržite nas na BuyMeACoffee: https://bit.ly/3uSBmoa Pročitajte transkript ove epizode: https://bit.ly/3JhrDUB Posetite naš sajt i prijavite se na našu mailing listu: http://bit.ly/2LUKSBG Prijavite se na naš YouTube kanal: http://bit.ly/2Rgnu7o Pratite Pojačalo na društvenim mrežama: Facebook: http://bit.ly/2FfwqCR Twitter: http://bit.ly/2CVZoGr Instagram: http://bit.ly/2RzGHjN

The episode concludes with insights on biblical masculinity and the impact of fatherhood on personal development. Takeaways Franklin Swann emphasizes the importance of community and support for men. Personal struggles can lead to a greater purpose in helping others. Coaching played a crucial role in Franklin's journey to self-improvement.

Every year, I write a "State of Design" column where I talk about how I feel the last year of Magic design went. This year's column starts with Bloomburrow and goes through Magic: The Gathering®—FINAL FANTASY™. With six sets to talk about, I ended up having a pretty lengthy article, so I made a supplementary podcast where I walk through every new mechanic to give my thoughts on how they went.

In this episode, I talk about why guarding your eyes is more about spiritual focus than visual restriction, how distraction erodes both your momentum and your peace, practical ways to protect your attention in a noisy world, the connection between what you see, what you seek, and what you eventually build and more.CONNECT WITH ME…→ Instagram — @mattgottesman→ My Substack — mattgottesman.substack.com → Apparel — thenicheisyou.comRESOURCES…→ Recommended Book List — CLICK HERE→ Workshops — CLICK HERE→ Masterclass — CLICK HEREWORKSHOPS + MASTERCLASS:→ Need MORE clarity? - Here's the FREE… 6 Days to Clarity Workshop - clarity for your time, energy, money, creativity, work & play→ Write, Design, Build: Content Creator Studio & OS - Growing the niche of you, your audience, reach, voice, passion & incomeOTHER RELATED EPISODES:You Don't Need to Reinvent Yourself… You Need to Remember YourselfApple: https://bit.ly/3ImWKgYSpotify: https://bit.ly/4nJAKwY

This episode of First Draft Live is presented by Agora.It's been a chaotic year for the construction industry. Between a volatile tariff regime, elevated interest rates and increased pressures on its labor force, contractors have had to navigate one of the most difficult environments in recent memory. On this week's First Draft Live, Shawmut Design and Construction CEO Les Hiscoe breaks down the impacts of the uncertainty and how his $2B Boston-based company is handling the turmoil. “When things aren't known and you can't really plan on them in our industry, you can't give our clients predictability,” he said on the show.While many developers are responding to the moment by delaying projects — Hiscoe said one of his clients won't start building until interest rates fall a full percentage point — Shawmut is advising them against it as the impacts of tariffs have yet to fully be realized.“Waiting is a mistake,” he said.Register on Bisnow.com to join next Friday's conversation live, or check back here for the conversation after it airs.

Today's guest is Kathy Sierra. Kathy Sierra is a computer scientist, author, and horse-movement innovator who bridges neuroscience, learning psychology, and equine training. Co-creator of the award-winning Head First programming series and founder of the JavaRanch community, she later turned her expertise in intrinsic motivation toward her lifelong passion for horses. Through her Panther Flow approach, Kathy helps horses and riders unlock confident, curious, and expressive movement, sharing her work worldwide through courses, workshops, and writing. In training and movement, drilling “perfect form” is standard practice. The more we get into how humans learn, the more we realize that “perfect form” is a myth, and learning is a far more complex venture. Using both differential learning (variety) and constraints helps athletes hone in on their own optimal (and robust) technique, without needing to constantly be looking for one “perfect” way to do things. This is not only true in animals, but also in humans and in machine learning. On this week's episode, Kathy covers aspects of training horses using the same motor learning concepts that work best in humans. She also goes into how and why robots learn to move better based on constraints, trial and error, versus a “perfect technique” type of programming. This is a fascinating and wide-ranging discussion on human movement, learning, and sport skill. Today's episode is brought to you by Hammer Strength.

What to try: Start with establishing safety and trust before layering complexity. Use observation as your first tool, notice subtle shifts in posture or energy. Match your cues to the learner's readiness, not your agenda. Discovering the Community of Movement – [11:16] She describes how connecting with other movement-minded people broadened her perspective and expanded her toolkit. What to try: Seek out cross-disciplinary conversations, dancers, martial artists, animal trainers. Share drills and games openly; let others adapt them for their setting. Use community feedback as a way to refine your own approach. The Power of Natural Movement – [21:40] Kathy emphasizes that natural, unforced movement often produces the most authentic and sustainable skill. What to try: Design environments that invite natural movement patterns to emerge. Remove overbearing cues, let the body self-organize. Watch for efficiency and ease, not just output. Emotions in Movement and Skill Acquisition – [32:19] She links emotional state to physical learning, noting that fear or tension can block skill development. What to try: Pair challenging tasks with positive emotional experiences. Recognize emotional cues, frustration, joy, hesitation, and adjust tasks accordingly. Celebrate small wins to keep confidence high. The Impact of Coaching on Authenticity – [41:22] Kathy warns that over-coaching can erode authenticity in movement. What to try: Avoid shaping every rep, allow athletes to bring their own style. Use fewer,
