This week on Unglossy, Bun B, Tom Frank, and Jeffrey Sledge sit down with Michael Ford, The Hip Hop Architect—a designer using rhythm and rhyme to reshape skylines. From leading tThe Hip Hop Museum in the Bronx to launching the Hip Hop Architecture Camp, Ford proves design can be culture, not just construction.He shares how rap lyrics inspire real-world spaces, why representation matters in architecture, and how collaborations with Kurtis Blow, Lupe Fiasco and Herman Miller, and turn creativity into community impact.The crew dives into Virgil Abloh's legacy, Lenny Kravitz's world-building, and Ford's next blueprint: a Hip Hop Museum of the South in Memphis.
Empathy might be one of the most essential skills for learning designers, and there's no better place to learn it than design thinking. That's why, in this episode, I am joined by Sheryl Cababa, a design researcher and strategist, and the Chief Strategy Officer at Optimistic Design, to give us some insight into her process.She clarifies what design thinking is and what it entails, how it can help us design better learning solutions and navigate stakeholders in the decision-making process, and three principles that will get you a level deeper in the analysis phase.▶️ 3 Design Thinking Principles for Learning & Development Pros with Sheryl Cababa ▶️ Key Points:03:37 How Sheryl is helping clients reimagine education with design08:31 Design thinking or human-centered design in a nutshell12:20 The significant benefits of using a design thinking approach in L&D17:52 Understand everyone's incentives19:42 Always center the end user in your work20:45 Think about your most extreme users24:28 Valuable resources to get started with design thinkingResources from this episode:Get Sheryl's book Closing the Loop: Systems Thinking For Designers.For a toolkit with practical tips on applying human-centered design, access IDEO's Design Kit.For a breakdown of what it means to do research around design and user experience, check out the book: Just Enough Research by Erika Hall.Join the Nonprofit Learning and Development Collective: https://www.skillmastersmarket.com/nonprofit-learning-and-development-collectiveWas this episode helpful?

En este episodio de Tertulia Dura, converso con Alci Cruz, fundador de Conexus, una comunidad educativa que rompe el molde tradicional aplicando principios de Design Thinking y pensamiento crítico para formar estudiantes capaces de adaptarse a un mundo real y cambiante.Hablamos de una verdad incómoda: muchos padres, con las mejores intenciones, están dañando a sus hijos sin darse cuenta.La hiperprotección, la sobrevigilancia y la obsesión por evitar cualquier tipo de frustración están formando adultos frágiles, dependientes y emocionalmente inmaduros.Alci explica por qué la verdadera educación no busca eliminar el error, sino convertirlo en maestro, y cómo el rol del padre moderno no es proteger a toda costa, sino preparar para la vida.Exploramos también el concepto de antifragilidad de Nassim Taleb: la capacidad de fortalecerse con la adversidad. Porque sin frustración, no hay carácter. Y sin carácter, no hay criterio.
What if time wasn't fixed, but something you could stretch, compress, and reframe? In this episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, host Bill Sherman sits down with John Coyle—Olympian, design thinking expert, and author of "Design for Strengths". John has spent his life chasing the meaning of time, from hundredths of a second on the ice to decades in thought leadership. His work asks us to reconsider not just how much time we have, but how we experience it. John shares how fleeting moments can reset the trajectory of our lives—an insight that came from his Olympic journey where fractions of a second separate gold from "first loser". He explains the Greek distinction between Chronos (clock time) and Kairos (human, transformative time) and why organizations and leaders need to design for the moments that truly matter. We explore John's unique career path—from competing alongside Lance Armstrong and working with Enron to translating neuroscience and psychology into practical lessons on leadership, innovation, and resilience. Along the way, he reveals how flow state, storytelling, and emotional engagement can make time slow down and make ideas stick. You'll also hear John's most powerful Kairos moment—the story of a silver medal, a boy who became an Olympian, and how one act of kindness changed two lives forever. It's a reminder that you never know when a small choice can alter someone's future. This conversation challenges leaders to rethink their relationship with time, memory, and meaning. It's not about adding years to your life—it's about adding more life to your years. Three Key Takeaways: • Moments reset the future. Leadership pivots often come from brief Kairos moments that redefine direction more than years of steady effort. • Memories are the currency of time. Flow states, risk, and storytelling create lasting memories that make life feel longer and leadership more impactful. • Design for strengths, not weaknesses. Leaders unlock innovation and resilience when they focus on amplifying strengths instead of patching flaws. If you found value in today's conversation about designing time, flow, and moments that move you forward, you'll want to listen to Maximizing the Flow of Ideas for Your Organization with guests Jeremy Utley and Perry Klebahn. That episode digs into how leaders generate more ideas over time—and why volume, variety, and experimentation are just as important as insight or vision. Both episodes ask a powerful question: how do you create an environment where your best ideas don't just happen—but compound? In short, if you want tools for turning strengths into breakthroughs, and moments into momentum—this is your next listen. It'll help you scale creativity, lead from possibility, and expand what “thought leadership” can mean across your team or organization.
What if the most powerful skill you could develop as a designer has nothing to do with Figma or AI? In this episode, we explore why writing is the ultimate meta-skill—sharpening your thinking, influencing decisions, and accelerating your career in unexpected ways.Is writing the most underrated design skill of all time?We spend a lot of time talking about design skills like prototyping, facilitation, and AI tools. But what if the skill that strengthens all of those is the one designers most often ignore?In this episode, I sit down with Thijs Kraan, a designer-turned-growth partner, who makes the case that writing is the ultimate meta-skill. For Thijs, writing every day didn't just sharpen his thinking; it multiplied his impact. From running a 30-day challenge to publishing daily posts, writing became the catalyst for everything else in his career.We talk about the difference between business writing, expert writing, and copywriting, why clear writing equals clear thinking, and how documentation can protect your career when tough decisions come back months later. We also tackle the elephant in the room: AI. Should you let ChatGPT do your writing, or will that shortcut make you worse in the long run?Whether you're trying to influence stakeholders, sharpen your thinking, or just get better at your day-to-day communication, this conversation will show you why writing might just be the most important design skill you haven't been practicing.Tune in and see why it's time to pick up the pen (or keyboard).Topics:• 02:45 – The Importance of Writing in UX Design• 04:19 – Thijs Kron's Journey: From Web Development to Writing• 06:05 – The Power of Writing in Design Thinking• 06:31 – Building a Writing Habit• 15:06 – Writing as a Meta Skill• 20:55 – Different Types of Writing for Designers• 22:33 – The Role of Copywriting in Design• 24:36 – Writing as a Career Multiplier• 28:38 – The Impact of AI on Writing• 30:19 – Balancing AI and Human Thinking• 31:35 – Personal Experience with AI in Writing• 32:43 – Effective Uses of AI for Writing• 34:54 – The Risks of Over-Reliance on AI• 36:13 – Practical Tips for Writing and ThinkingHelpful Links:• Connect with Thijs on LinkedIn—Thanks for listening!

From streamlining complex onboarding flows to surfacing the right information at the right time, design thinking encourages product design teams to bring empathy and intentionality into every layer of product development, creating experiences that are intuitive, responsive, and centered around real human needs. Temenos is leading the charge to bring that mindset back to banking innovation, with Erik Johnson, Head of Product Design, at the helm. For Johnson, creativity and collaboration go hand in hand with functionality. On this episode of the Tearsheet podcast, Johnson talks about structuring his design team in a “centralized, hybrid” model, solving design challenges with data and empathy, and how Temenos' Innovation Hub in Orlando is structured to be a “we space” for exploring and co-creating new banking products.

Stwierdzenie „emocje są złym doradcą” jest całkiem powszechne, ale nie do końca prawdziwe, bo emocje same w sobie nie są złe, a ich wartość zależy od tego, jak na nie zareagujemy i czy będziemy pod ich wpływem podejmować kluczowe w życiu decyzje. Silne, niekontrolowane emocje mogą jednak prowadzić do nieracjonalnych kroków i negatywnych skutków, dlatego ważne jest, aby odczekać, aż emocje opadną, zanim postanowimy zrobić w swoim życiu coś ważnego. Emocje warto zrozumieć, żeby nam nie zaszkodziły, żebyśmy byli w stanie zamienić je w coś pozytywnego. Jak to zrobić? I co się stanie jeśli nie będziemy tego potrafili? Dlaczego emocje są drogowskazami, których nie można lekceważyć? W jakich okolicznościach mogą być groźne dla naszego zdrowia psychicznego i fizycznego? Gościem Michała Poklękowskiego, w tej edycji Drogowskazów jest Aleksandra Borowska, coach, moderatorka Design Thinking, konsultantka MaxieDISC, mediatorka, trenerka Process Communication Model, wykładowczyni i tutorka oraz autorka książki pod tytułem „Zrozumieć emocje. Kurs pozytywnej zmiany”.
How can a game transform life-or-death conversations in healthcare settings? A conversation with Criswell Lappin In this compelling episode, design thinker Criswell Lappin reveals how play and games can break down barriers in healthcare, particularly for underserved communities. With over 20 years of experience spanning from Apple to healthcare innovation, Lappin demonstrates that the mechanics of play aren't just for children—they're powerful tools for building trust and sparking meaningful conversations. The St. Joseph's Health Project Lappin's most impactful work involved addressing a critical healthcare challenge in Paterson, New Jersey. Pregnant women weren't asking clinical questions during appointments, creating gaps in care. Through research, his team discovered that women felt more comfortable when they found shared experiences with their healthcare providers. The solution? A simple "Would You Rather?" card game that pairs clinical topics, encouraging both patients and nurses to share stories and find common ground. One powerful example: a 19-year-old patient with a history of sexual abuse initially refused a pelvic exam. After playing the game and bonding over pasta sauce preferences, she opened up and began asking about delivery options she hadn't known existed. The Philosophy Behind Play Lappin's approach stems from two core influences: his childhood collecting baseball cards (visual appeal backed by data) and growing up with a disabled younger brother (fostering empathy and caregiving instincts). He believes play gives people permission to approach problems differently by lowering stakes and reducing formality. Key Design Principles Lappin shared four essential pieces of advice he gives to students, teams, and his own children: Plan on multiple futures - especially in business contexts Focus on what you can control - worrying about uncontrollable variables leads nowhere Aim for 1% better - small weekly improvements compound into transformation Prioritize who you work with over what you do - relationships lead to interesting work Looking Forward The St. Joseph's project, now called "Prefieris" (Spanish for "Would You Rather"), continues to expand as the hospital collects data on its impact. Lappin emphasizes the importance of having internal champions like nurse Stephanie Matthews, noting that such allies are critical for moving innovative projects forward in traditional institutions. This episode illuminates how thoughtful design thinking, combined with the universal language of play, can create profound human connections that ultimately save lives and improve healthcare outcomes for vulnerable communities.

UX and digital branding are no longer "nice-to-haves" in banking—they are strategic imperatives that directly impact growth, customer loyalty, and competitive edge.This episode explores how banks can move beyond viewing UX as a cosmetic upgrade and start treating it as a business-critical investment. We share practical strategies for securing executive buy-in by framing UX in terms of Return on Experience (ROX)—linking it to revenue growth, cost reduction, risk mitigation, and market leadership. You'll also learn how to build a strong business case, demonstrate value through prototypes and quick wins, benchmark against competitors, and set KPIs that prove impact over time. Plus, we dive into case studies of banks that transformed their digital presence by prioritizing UX and applying frameworks like Design Thinking and UXDA's Digital Experience Branding.Find out:How to strategically integrate UX and digital branding for sustainable business growthProven tactics to win executive support for UX initiativesHow to measure and communicate the impact of UX on business performanceRead the full article on UXDA's blog: https://theuxda.com/blog/unlocking-executive-buyin-for-ux-and-digital-branding-banking* AI podcast on UXDA article powered by Google NotebookLM

Il cambiamento funziona allo stesso modo: non si tratta di trovare l'equilibrio al primo colpo, ma di sperimentare, aggiustare e ripartire. In questa puntata parliamo di come allenare la capacità di provare nuove strade senza rischiare tutto, con piccoli test che ti permettono di capire cosa ti sostiene davvero. Un approccio che inserisco nel mio metodo: il Design Thinking applicato alla vita, che ti aiuta a costruire routine, lavoro e stile di vita su misura per te.
Di era perubahan yang serba cepat ini, banyak program pelatihan terasa usang sebelum dimulai. Seringkali, metode konvensional berfokus pada penyampaian konten secara satu arah, seolah-olah semua peserta memiliki kebutuhan yang sama. Hasilnya? Peserta merasa bosan, tidak terlibat, dan yang paling penting, tidak mampu menerapkan apa yang mereka pelajari di tempat kerja. Bukankah kita sudah menghabiskan waktu, energi, dan uang untuk solusi yang tidak efektif Namun, ada sebuah pendekatan yang mampu mengubah semua ini. Sebuah metode yang tidak hanya berfokus pada "apa" yang diajarkan, tetapi juga pada "siapa" yang belajar. Itulah Design Thinking. Dengan menempatkan peserta didik sebagai titik awal dari setiap keputusan desain, kita dapat menciptakan pengalaman belajar yang terasa personal, relevan, dan memberdayakan.
Education Minds - Didaktische Reduktion und Erwachsenenbildung
Heute ist Sandra Schmid bei mir zu Gast. Sie ist Digital Learning Expert und Gründerin von Lernraum Design. Seit über 15 Jahren bewegt sie sich an der Schnittstelle von Didaktik, Technologie und Unternehmensstrategie. Mit ihrer Arbeit unterstützt sie Organisationen dabei, digitale Lernangebote nicht nur technisch clever, sondern vor allem didaktisch wirksam zu gestalten.

Have you ever thought about packing it all in - giving up your home and hitting the road with no long terms plans in sight? Recently I've met a few people, in their 40s and above, who have done this, adopting the nomad lifestyle. One is my friend, whom I met when he came to live with me for three months, which has become an annual occurrence, Kevin Sessums.A woman whom I met via a Lovehoney campaign in which we featured, Tina Pemberton, whom is active on TikTok, is shortly going travelling with her son for a few months and then exploring the world on her own.Marni Battista, my latest guest is another, who shared her on transformative journey of self-discovery, including a life-changing RV trip that revealed the importance of facing fears and embracing change. Together, we discussed how to shake up long-term relationships, the application of design thinking to life changes, and the significance of curiosity, openness, and optimism in fostering intimacy and personal growth. Marni's story is inspirational and, as someone who is now considering my next winter destination (currently looking like Thailand), emphasises the importance of taking small steps towards change and how to empower others to embrace their own transformations.You can find Marni's website here.Her Substack is here.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Life Transformation01:57 The RV Experience: A Journey of Self-Discovery09:44 Shaking Up Long-Term Relationships11:02 Design Thinking for Life Changes14:44 Reviving Intimacy Through New Experiences19:15 Empowering Others to Embrace Change22:48 Applying Design Thinking to Relationships28:53 Curiosity, Openness, and Optimism in LifeWhat's this about?Hi, I'm Suzanne, author of the bestseller ‘The Butcher, the Baker, the Candlestick Maker: An Erotic Memoir,' pleasure seeker and curious about ways to improve our intimate relationships as we age.Each week, I delve into a different aspects of sex, dating and relationships with an expert which I bring to you via the Sex Advice for Seniors podcast.

Kurze Zusammenfassung: In dieser Episode sprechen wir mit Nora Urru – UX-Designerin mit über 24 Jahren Berufserfahrung – über die großen Herausforderungen und Chancen beim Thema UX in kleinen und mittleren Unternehmen (KMU). Sie teilt praxisnahe Strategien, wie man UX auch ohne große Budgets implementieren kann, warum Buzzwords oft mehr schaden als nutzen und welche Missverständnisse sie im Berufsalltag am häufigsten erlebt. Mit vielen Beispielen aus ihrer eigenen Arbeit zeigt sie, wie UX auch in scheinbar UX-fremden Branchen wie Energieversorgung oder Wissenschaft funktionieren kann – und wie man mit Fingerspitzengefühl und Business-Verständnis langfristige Erfolge erzielt. | ZEITSTEMPEL | [00:00] Vorstellung von Nora Urru & ihr Weg in die UX | [03:00] Was UX für Nora bedeutet & wie sie es erklärt | [05:00] Branchen und Projekttypen, mit denen sie arbeitet | [06:00] Warum UX in KMUs kaum gelebt wird | [10:00] Typische Vorurteile und Fehleinschätzungen | [12:00] Strategie für Aha-Erlebnisse beim Kunden | [16:00] UX = teuer?

Get the book!The greatest innovations often begin with a simple question: "What if we tried this differently?" In this fascinating exploration of innovation mindsets, we unpack the two complementary approaches that fuel breakthroughs—design thinking and first principles thinking.hese very approaches are at the heart of my book Protection for the Inventive Mind, a practical fieldbook that helps inventors and creatives turn frustrations into prototypes and big ideas into protected strategies.From the Wright brothers' wind tunnel experiments at Kitty Hawk to SpaceX landing rockets upright, we trace how returning to fundamental truths allows inventors to rebuild solutions from scratch. These stories show first principles thinking as the "logic scalpel" that cuts through assumptions and tradition to reveal new possibilities.Alongside this analytical approach, we discover design thinking—the "empathy engine" that powers human-centered innovation. We see how watching an arthritic woman struggle with kitchen tools birthed OXO Good Grips, how children's tears transformed hospital MRI machines into pirate ships, and how PillPack revolutionized medication management by truly understanding patient frustrations.The episode reveals surprising connections between seemingly unrelated innovations. The kingfisher bird's perfect dive inspired Japan's bullet train nose design. Velcro emerged when a Swiss engineer examined burrs stuck to his dog under a microscope. These moments of biomimicry demonstrate how nature offers solutions to our most persistent challenges.What's particularly inspiring is how often world-changing ideas emerge from everyday annoyances—James Dyson's 5,000 vacuum prototypes, IKEA's flat-pack revelation from a stubborn table that wouldn't fit in a car, and Airbnb's humble beginnings with air mattresses on an apartment floor. These stories prove that frustration can be billion-dollar inspiration when viewed through the right lens.Ready to apply these mindsets to your own challenges? Listen for five actionable innovation principles distilled from these remarkable stories, and discover how combining empathy with fundamental thinking can transform not just products, but experiences, systems, and culture itself. Whether you're sketching on a napkin or aiming for the stars, the way you think might be your greatest invention yet.Send us a textSupport the show
Send us a text¡Adquiere el libro!¿Alguna vez te has preguntado qué tienen en común una aspiradora revolucionaria, el velcro y un cohete que aterriza verticalmente? Todos nacieron cuando alguien se atrevió a replantear un problema desde cero o a ponerse en los zapatos de otra persona.En este fascinante recorrido por 20 historias de innovación transformadora, descubrimos cómo dos poderosas mentalidades han moldeado nuestro mundo moderno. El Design Thinking, motor de la empatía que nos impulsa a observar, definir, idear y prototipar soluciones centradas en el usuario. Y el First Principles Thinking, ese bisturí lógico que descompone problemas hasta sus elementos más fundamentales para reconstruir soluciones desde la base.Estos mismos enfoques son la base de mi libro Protección para la Mente Inventiva, un cuaderno práctico diseñado para que inventores y creativos puedan transformar frustraciones en prototipos y grandes ideas en estrategias protegidas.Viajamos desde las dunas de Kitty Hawk donde los hermanos Wright conquistaron el cielo por primera vez, hasta los senderos suizos donde unos molestos abrojos inspiraron el velcro. Te llevamos a la frustración doméstica que impulsó a James Dyson a crear 5,000 prototipos antes de revolucionar las aspiradoras, y a los hospitales donde Doug Dietz transformó aterradoras máquinas de resonancia en aventuras para niños.Cada historia revela un patrón sorprendente: las innovaciones más disruptivas no siempre nacen en laboratorios de alta tecnología, sino en momentos de frustración cotidiana vistos a través de ojos curiosos. Desde el rediseño del carrito de supermercado en apenas cinco días hasta la transformación completa de la economía espacial con cohetes reutilizables, estas mentalidades nos demuestran que la empatía y la lógica pura, trabajando juntas, pueden cambiar el mundo.¿Te atreves a cuestionar lo establecido? Quizás tu próxima molestia cotidiana sea el punto de partida para la próxima gran innovación. Acompáñanos en este viaje inspirador y descubre cómo cultivar tu propia mente inventiva.Support the show
In S6 E8 I am delighted to welcome Associate Professor Bhavesh Patel to the podcast. Dr Patel is a senior paediatric surgeon at The Queensland Children's hospital with over two decades of experience in paediatric and neonatal, colorectal and urological surgery. He is the Queensland State-wide Clinical Lead for Surgical Quality Improvement through his appointment at Clinical Excellence Queensland. As an Associate Professor he teaches students at several medical schools, and provides state-wide education to nursing staff and other medical professionals. He trains future surgeons, and his research spans across a number of fields. Bhavesh also has interests in digital health, technology, health literacy and human factors in health care.In this conversation I have the opportunity to learn more about his work and the different hats Bhavesh now wears in his clinical, executive and educator roles. We discuss the evolution of his work in quality and safety and the systems thinking lens he applies to complex problem solving in healthcare. Bhavesh share his personal and professional journey and development and the impact of coaching on his ability to harness his ideas and efforts, gaining confidence and focus in recent years.I was particular keen to explore his creative approach to digital innovation in patient communication including infographics and his recent work in building an experimental AI avatar. We do well to cover a lot of ground here but I still left this conversation feeling I had peeled only a few layers of the onion, and the brilliant, curious mind of this creative clinician. There will have to be an encore! Finally Bhavesh gives a taster for his keynote presentation at the 2025 Creative Careers in Medicine conference and listeners who missed the conference will be able to access the recordings when released ( details below).

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
Anche quest'anno, la puntata di agosto di Parola Progetto è dedicata all'intelligenza artificiale. Dopo aver esplorato ChatGPT, questa volta tocca a Perplexity AI, un motore di ricerca che integra un chatbot con intelligenza artificiale generativa.Negli ultimi mesi il nome Perplexity è comparso spesso nelle notizie: c'è chi dice che Apple stia valutando di acquisirla per potenziare le proprie soluzioni di AI, mentre pochi giorni fa l'azienda ha fatto parlare di sé proponendo a Google l'acquisto di Chrome per 34,5 miliardi di dollari. Una situazione in rapido movimento, che ha reso irresistibile la tentazione di metterla alla prova.In questo episodio, Perplexity risponde a una selezione di domande poste ai protagonisti della settima stagione del podcast. E le sue risposte sono decismante diverse da quelle degli umani che l'hanno preceduto.In coda al dialogo, chiudiamo poi con qualche riflessione sul metodo e su ciò che possiamo imparare chiacchierando con i nostri assistenti intelligenti e artificiali.Link dell'episodio:- Il sito di Perplexity https://www.perplexity.ai/ - Il libro di Kenya Hara “Designing Design” https://www.lars-mueller-publishers.com/designing-design
In this episode we interview Hala Saleh. Hala is a skilled and thoughtful product leader who I met by coincidence over 10 years ago while reading a copy of the Lean Startup book. We catch up and discuss how the term Minimum Viable Product or MVP has evolved since then and how lean startup principles can be applied outside of the digital product space to things like communities.Hala shares her journey through various roles in tech over the years while emphasizing the need for testing and customer feedback.I really appreciate her thought process on how she tackles problems in different industries.

In light of Google's new video editor the Team tackles the topic of AI again. We talk about the pros and cons that could come from the extreme power of AI tools currently, diving into media production and consumption patterns, safe ways to interact with AI creations, and the over-saturation of the market. Discussions surround why people may shy away from the disingenuous and seek out real connections. Is AI media transitory? Will authenticity win out? Kristen doesn't answer Mark‘s questions and instead talks about her AI hopes and dreams, Dan has more horror movie recommendations, and Mark‘s new exhibit is live (though by the time this episode airs it will be closed).Host, Producer, & Editor - Mark CelaHost, Director, & Script Writer - Kristen PericleousHost, Social Media Manager, Social Media Content Creator, & Editor - Dan LawsonHost, Website Director - Lauren DeMarks
Kako radoznalost može da postane tvoja karijera? U 330. epizodi Ivan razgovara sa Milovanom Dekićem – User Research Lead-om u Nordeusu, koautorom bestseler knjige „Design Thinking – kako da stvarate proizvode koje ljudi žele“ i jednim od pionira UX istraživanja u mobilnim igrama na ovim prostorima. Ovo je prva od dve epizode koje će biti posvećene Milovanovom životu i karijeri. Kroz otvoren i živ razgovor, Dekić deli svoj put od detinjstva u Vranju, opsesije muzikom i košarkom, preko školskih izazova i otkrivanja strasti za učenjem, do studija političkih nauka i akademske karijere, koju je napustio zbog nedostatka praktične primene istraživanja. Govori o svojim formativnim iskustvima, važnosti izlaska iz zone komfora, prototipisanju i eksperimentisanju, mentalitetu prema greškama i neuspehu, kao i o lekcijama iz bihevioralne ekonomije koje primenjuje u radu. Epizoda je bogata primerima iz prakse, pričama iz muzičke i omladinske subkulture 90-ih i ranih 2000-ih, ali i uvidima o tome kako posmatranje korisnika i validacija problema mogu da unaprede svaki proizvod ili ideju. Rezultat je inspirativan i neposredan portret čoveka koji spaja radoznalost, istraživačku disciplinu i kreativni pristup rešavanju problema. Teme u epizodi: - Najava razgovora - Početak razgovora - Kad porastem biću - Muzika i odrastanje - Školske muke - Studije i uticaji - Muzika i forumi - Rad na fakultetu - Odluka o doktoratu - Zaključak razgovora - Ulazak u Nordeus Podržite nas na BuyMeACoffee: https://bit.ly/3uSBmoa Pročitajte transkript ove epizode: https://bit.ly/47nl1xS 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

In this episode, Nathan welcomes Jason VanLue, VP of Product at Virtuous, to explore the intersection of design thinking, branding, and AI. Starting the conversation, Jason shares his unique journey into product development and storytelling. The duo dives into the importance of design principles, the art of vibe coding, and why the human touch matters more than ever in an AI-driven world.

What if you could design the future — instead of reacting to it? In today's episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, Peter Winick sits down with futurist and design strategist Lisa Kay Solomon to explore how leaders can use design thinking to actively shape what's next. Lisa is a Designer-in-Residence at Stanford's d.school, an educator, a bestselling author, and a respected voice on the Thinkers50 Radar list. She helps leaders and organizations make better long-term decisions in a short-term world. Her superpower? Turning vague uncertainty into actionable insight — by teaching leaders how to think like futurists. Lisa shares how she guides boards, conference planners, and executive teams through complex challenges. She doesn't just create better experiences — she builds capabilities that last. Whether it's designing strategic conversations or preparing teams to operate in ambiguity, Lisa brings a toolkit of creative, repeatable practices to move from stuck to strategic. If you've ever found yourself saying, “Yeah, but that would never happen here,” Lisa has a chapter — and a strategy — just for you. This conversation is packed with high-impact takeaways for those who want to lead with intention and design a future worth inhabiting. Three Key Takeaways: • Designing the Future Is a Teachable Skill Lisa argues that futures thinking isn't a mysterious talent—it's a learnable capability. Most leaders have been trained to focus on short-term goals. Lisa teaches them how to widen their lens, shift perspective, and think long-term using strategic design practices. • Great Ideas Need More Than Strategy—They Need Capability Organizations often bring Lisa in to spark innovation—whether at board meetings or large conferences. But the real value she delivers goes beyond a single event. She helps teams build the capabilities to sustain innovation, adapt to change, and continue asking the right questions long after she's gone. • Overcoming the “Yeah, Buts” That Block Progress Lisa names the top three “yeah, buts” that sabotage future thinking: short-term pressure, lack of resources, and not knowing how. Her approach disarms these mental blockers by reframing possibility as practical—and showing leaders how to move from reactive to proactive in shaping what's next. If you found Lisa Kay Solomon's insights on designing the future and building long-term leadership capabilities compelling, you won't want to miss our episode with Joseph Press: Thought Leadership for Future Thinking. Both Lisa and Joseph explore how leaders can move beyond short-term fixes to shape more intentional, future-ready organizations. While Lisa focuses on strategic conversations and capability building through design, Joseph dives into how thought leadership and digital transformation intersect to foster future thinking. Together, these episodes offer a powerful one-two punch for anyone looking to lead with clarity, creativity, and courage in uncertain times. Listen to both and equip yourself with the mindset and tools to not just predict the future—but actively shape it.
