Loneliness is dangerous. In 2023, the U.S. Surgeon General declared that isolation poses risks as serious as smoking or obesity.

Through the story of David and Bathsheba (2 Samuel 11), we see the real cost of going it alone—and the redemptive power of truth spoken in love.

Design Thinking is all the buzz when it comes to designing our products (or more appropriately, the solutions we discover to solve real problems). But does it stop there?Our guest on the episode makes a very convincing case for what he calls Experience Thinking.On this episode, Matt and Moshe met with Tedde van Gelderen, President of Akendi, a premier UX agency specializing in creating holistic, end-to-end experiences that enhance their clients' products and delight users. Tedde authored the book “Experience Thinking: Creating Connected Experiences”, in which he explains the importance of going beyond just product design or service design, and focusing on the holistic approach of experience design.In his own words, “Experience Thinking" starts with the holistic experience customers and users have with an organisation over time, then guides the enabling technologies and content to create intentional experiences. Experience Thinking should become deeply rooted in an organisation's creation processes.”Join us as we explore with Tedde:His background in psychology, and how it led him to design experiences, and to found his own UX consultancyWhere do products fit in in the holistic approach of experiences Where do we start with experience design? The role of Design Thinking in the context of Experience ThinkingThe missing process for service designersThe 4 areas of Experience Design: Brand Design, Product Design, Content Design and Service DesignThe importance of Brand Design on both product and service, and how some organizations ignore itWho should own the Experience Design (hint: it might be the Product people)Designing the experience that the users will be part of and not just the GTMWhere we can learn and get inspiration for experiences, and how do apply it to the experiences we need to designThe state of the industry and the adoption Experience Design/ThinkingHow can Product Managers start applying Experience Thinking within their organization and stakeholders And much much more…You can connect with Tedde at:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/teddevg/ Akendi: https://www.akendi.com Purchase the book: connect with Tedde directly for detailsYou can find the podcast's page, and connect with Matt and Moshe on Linkedin:Product for Product Podcast - linkedin.com/company/product-for-product-podcastMatt Green - https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattgreenproduct/Moshe Mikanovsky - linkedin.com/in/mikanovsky/ Note: any views mentioned in the podcast are the sole views of our hosts and guests,  and do not represent the products mentioned in any way.Please leave us a review and feedback ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

As a designer, Scott Doorley is interested in how humans create the world around them. It's a conversation, he says, that starts with the question: What kind of world do we want?Doorley is the creative director of the Stanford d.school and co-author of the book, Assembling Tomorrow: A Guide to Designing a Thriving Future. In designing everything from a device to an app to a building, “People get excited about what it can do,” he says, “but what should it do? What do we want? What's the desirable outcome that we want in the world?”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Doorley and host Matt Abrahams discuss how applying design thinking to communication can help us connect more with each other, better understand the world, and create meaningful change.Episode Reference Links:Stanford d.school Profile: Scott Doorley Stanford d.school Scott's Book: Assembling TomorrowEp.61 Courage, Belonging, Ambiguity and Data: How to Design Your Communication for Success Website / YouTube Ep.70 Keep 'Em Coming: Why Your First Ideas Aren't Always the Best Website / YouTube Connect:Email Questions & Feedback >>> thinkfast@stanford.eduEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn Page, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInStanford GSB >>> LinkedIn & TwitterChapters:(00:00:00) IntroductionHost Matt Abrahams introduces guest Scott Doorley, creative director of Stanford's d.school.(00:01:07) What is Design?The broad scope of design at Stanford's d.school and the role of intention in bringing ideas to life.(00:02:16) The Design ProcessThe design process, emphasizing desirability and externalizing ideas to understand them better.(00:03:32) Communication in DesignThe vital role of communication in all aspects of design.(00:05:09) Mistakes in Spatial DesignThe biggest mistake people make when arranging spaces for communication and interaction.(00:06:47) Runaway DesignThe concept of runaway design and its implications in the modern world.(00:09:29) Intangibles and ActionablesThe distinction between actionables and intangibles, and how these concepts can be applied beyond design.(00:12:47) Using Stories in DesignHow storytelling helps envision and communicate future impacts of design.(00:16:20) Emotion in InnovationThe role of emotions in driving innovation, communication, and design.(00:19:03) The Final Three QuestionsScott shares what he is currently designing, a communicator he admires, and his ingredients for successful communication.(00:23:17) ConclusionSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

“Don't go chasing shadows, Arthur.”Adapting a Classic Ghost Story for the Big ScreenThe Woman in Black, based on Susan Hill's 1983 novel of the same name, has been adapted for the stage, television, and radio. In 2012, James Watkins directed a feature film version starring Daniel Radcliffe in his first major role since the Harry Potter series. With a talented team behind the camera and a compelling lead actor, The Woman in Black aimed to bring a classic ghost story to life for a new generation. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue the 2013 Fangoria Chainsaw Awards Best Actor Nominees series with a conversation about The Woman in Black.Radcliffe's Post-Potter Performance and the Film's Ghostly AtmosphereIn our discussion, we explore Daniel Radcliffe's performance as Arthur Kipps, a young lawyer grappling with grief and tasked with settling the estate of the mysterious Alice Drablow. Radcliffe's portrayal marks a significant departure from his iconic role as Harry Potter, showcasing his range as an actor. We also delve into the film's effective use of atmosphere, from the eerie Eel Marsh House and causeway leading to it to the unsettling appearances of the titular specter. However, we note that the reliance on jump scares and horror tropes may detract from the overall impact of the story.Other Topics CoveredThe differences between the novel, previous adaptations, and the 2012 filmThe film's exploration of grief and lossThe effectiveness of the period setting and production designThe use of children in peril as a horror elementThe Woman in Black offers a haunting tale of a vengeful spirit and the devastating impact of loss. While the film may lean heavily on familiar ghost story conventions, it succeeds in creating a chilling atmosphere and showcasing Daniel Radcliffe's post-Potter acting chops. Despite some reservations about the ending and the reliance on jump scares, The Woman in Black remains a solid entry in the gothic horror genre and a testament to the enduring power of Susan Hill's original novel.

How important is culture?The answer might surprise you...Peter Drucker gets credit for saying, "In business, culture eats strategy for breakfast." I agree with Drucker...What I think he meant by this is that you can spend months-- or years working on your business strategy, but (business) culture permeates everyone and everything it comes in contact with to the point that it's an unstoppable force--for both good and evil. I sat down with performance, leadership training and culture expert Dr. Michael Gervais who added, "In every organization we belong to, we're (also) apart of a culture. And either you are contributing to that culture or you are allowing it to be what it is."This really got me thinking deeply about my own personal and business associations including my internal team, client and vendor relationships.  I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did.

Recent college grad Sean Riley noticed that his Animal House-style apartment full of dudes needed some help with hygiene. It wasn't like there wasn't enough toilet paper -- it was the fact that some (okay most) dudes needed a lot more help keeping that undercarriage clean after they did their business. Some dudes used bought baby wipes but that didn't seem to fit and that sparked the idea for a grown up hygienic product strong enough and made just for men and Dude Wipes was born.

Lindsay Housman was floored when she learned that women are considered “a confounding variable” when it comes to scientific and athletic research. That is to say that women are rarely researched because they are more “complicated.”This is especially true in the athletic footwear industry where most research has been done exclusively on men and then applied to women as a “smaller version of men.”Learning this was a lightbulb moment for this entrepreneur with two twin daughters (who also happen to run). Hettas, performance running shoes for women, was born. Truth be told, there are multiple differences between males and females in this area as it pertains to anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics and, today, Hettas is leading this charge in female specific research and design, thanks to their relationship with Dr. Chris Napier. Chris is a clinical assistant professor at the Department of Physical Therapy at the University of British Columbia. He is also a member of the Minerva research group at Simon Fraser University. His research interests include running biomechanics and injury prevention, particularly through the use of wearable technology. Lindsay and Chris unpack their process from idea to full fledged running shoe. They discuss:The many anatomical, physiological, and biomechanics differences between male and female athletes How hormonal changes in women could affect training and footwear choices The detailed research studies they conducted to determine what women actually needThe three shoe types and why they chose the specific materials and designThe power of building community and receiving feedback from female runnersTheir plan for growth and product expansionTheir dream research projects Not only are they providing a practical product to help women perform better, but Hetta's is also mission driven to lead the way in women's research, encourage female business leadership, and close the confidence gap between males and females in the athletic industry. And, according to Lindsay, Chris, and the entire Hetta's team, there is no better way to serve young girls and women- especially their own daughters.
