Behind every great invention is an engineer who figured out how to make it work. But how do you take an extremely technical, cutting-edge innovation and make it easy to understand and use for the public? That's where designers come in.Barry Katz is a professor emeritus of industrial design at California College of the Arts and a consulting professor at Stanford University. He is the author of the book, Make It New: A History of Silicon Valley Design, co-author of Change by Design: How Design Thinking Transforms Organizations and Inspires Innovation, and has spent decades studying the history of design thinking and its purpose at organizations. Barry and Greg discuss the historical trajectory of design in tech, how engineers and designers began collaborating in the 1980s, and the role of design in transforming technologies into user-friendly products. The conversation also covers the interdisciplinary nature of design, the impact of design thinking on various industries, and Barry's latest book detailing the application of design principles in healthcare. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:You don't have to be a designer to think like one31:47: You don't have to be a designer to think like one. And in fact, you probably don't want to become a designer. But over the course of this rather remarkable few decades, designers have learned a lot of tricks, and they're basically tricks. And many of those tricks can be learned by entrepreneurs, lawyers, physicians, which is what we dealt with in our most recent book. And it's not turning them into designers; it's giving them tools to solve their problems in medicine, law, engineering, or wherever, in something like the way that designers solve their problems.Why design thrives like an ecosystem19:17: So what is the connector between the internal combustion engine and the car, between the printed circuit board and the lamp? It's design. So, in the course of that, designers have had to learn a whole lot of new skills, new tricks. That's where design thinking has played, I think, an important role, which may be drawing to a close. They've learned to integrate the behavioral sciences. They've learned how to talk to technical people. There's no doubt that it is an ongoing challenge.Designers shape experiences, not just products25:40: We don't want products to fail people. Now, a refrigerator is one thing, but then, when you are starting not just to approach a large appliance in your kitchen but to put it in your pocket, your kid's backpack, or a contact lens—which is to deliver insulin to a diabetic, which Google X is working on—then your tolerance for a bad experience vanishes. And it is a bit of a hackneyed thing to say, but the role of designers has been to create an experience.Design isn't about knowing everything, it's about knowing who to ask27:15: What happens when you have an exposure to the way anthropologists approach a problem, or economists, or linguists, or whoever it might be, is not that you become one or you acquire that level of professionalism, but you know who to ask. And you've heard an entirely new inventory of questions that may not have occurred to you in the past but are now on your agenda.  And you either acquire a sufficient level of professional skill to answer those questions, or you now know who to ask. Show Links:Recommended Resources:Moore's Law The Microma Silicon Valley (TV series) Alphonse Chapanis Larry Page Franz von HolzhausenDeepSeekNatasha Jen: Design Thinking is Bullsh*tGuest Profile:Faculty Profile at California College of the ArtsFaculty Profile at Stanford UniversityProfessional Profile on LinkedInHis Work:Make It New: A History of Silicon Valley DesignChange by Design, Revised and Updated: How Design Thinking Transforms Organizations and Inspires Innovation

In this episode, I dive into the important roles of Visionary and Integrator, and how understanding the difference between the two can revolutionize your business. Last summer, I picked up the book Traction and it completely shifted my perspective on leadership. While I've mentioned this before, today I'm going to focus on one key takeaway: the distinction between the Visionary and the Integrator roles. I'll break down what each role entails and how they work together to drive a business forward. When I first read about these roles, I thought I was both – doing everything and juggling all the responsibilities. But as I've started being more honest with myself about where my company needs help, I've realized that we're missing a strong Integrator. I'll share how this insight is guiding my plans to build up one of our center directors to become our future Executive Director. I also answer a listener's question about concession periods when opening a daycare in a commercial property. I'll share the factors that affect how long a concession period can be and why it's crucial to negotiate effectively. Want your questions featured in the consultant's corner?

It takes more than one great leader to help a business reach its full potential. It takes two, a Visionary and an Integrator. They're two vastly different types of leaders; Visionaries generate the big ideas, and Integrators bring everything together to make ideas realities. On their own, these two leaders have potential, but together they form a combination that's essential for true liftoff. In season three of the Rocket Fuel podcast, host Mark C. Winters is back with new entrepreneurial duos who are using Rocket Fuel to get more out of their businesses, only this time, he's teaching you the tools and concepts each duo could have used to maximize their potential even faster.

Welcome to a brand-new segment on the BossMom podcast, where Dana Malstaff and Krista (BossMom's Integrator and mom of 5) bring you unfiltered conversations about the intersection of motherhood and business!   In this teaser episode, Dana and Krista give you a sneak peek into the deep (and sometimes hilarious) discussions that are coming your way.   We'll be exploring everything from balancing family life with running a business, to those vulnerable “bomb truths” about motherhood that no one really talks about. Expect to laugh, learn, and maybe even get a little uncomfortable as we talk through some of the biggest topics moms face today.   Episode Highlights: Are Your Kids Really Your Purpose? – Dana shares her perspective on why children aren't your only purpose and how this mindset shift can free you to pursue more in life. Motherhood vs. House Management – We discuss the cultural confusion between parenting and housework, and why they're not the same thing. Grieving and Running a Business – Grief is a part of motherhood and business, for all moms to varying degrees. We'll be sharing how we navigate this. Should Husbands Pay Wives for Meal Planning? – This question sparked an exciting debate about unpaid labor in the home, financial security, and negotiating support from your partner. The Wisdom of Children – Krista talks about the inherent wisdom of kids and how we can nurture that both in parenting and in our entrepreneurial lives.   If you've ever felt torn between being a mom and running a business—or if you're just looking for some real talk from women who've been there—this episode is for you!

In this podcast, Walt Zerbe, Sr. Director of Technology and Standards at CEDIA and host of the CEDIA podcast, talks with Darren Reaman, Director of Government Affairs at CEDIA, Michael Cogbill, Owner and Principle of Rev 2 Consulting, and Ken Erdmann, Director of Technical Education Programs at CEDIA about CEDIA's campaign to get a listing on the Standard Occupational Code (SOC) on the federal statistical standard for a Technology Integrator to make is an official occupation. This supports workforce development, advocacy, and education initiatives among other things.  We also talk about limited energy language changes in the National Electrical Code (NEC) which is a major change (and a good one) from using the term low voltage.  These efforts are due to Ken and Michael having a seat representing CEDIA on code panel 2 of the current NEC revision. By the way, all of these efforts have international ramifications - this isn't just a USA thing.

CEDIA works daily to monitor, track, and lobby on licensing legislation and regulations to ensure that the appropriate scope of work for a license or an exemption covers the work done by integrators today and in the future. CEDIA's Government Affairs Program's mission is to support members and ensure that their ability to own and operate their businesses is not impeded upon. The mission of the CEDIA Government Affairs Program is to influence public policy to protect CEDIA members, the smart home technology industry, and consumers. Job Description for State Captains ·       State Captains will be the captains of their particular state. ·       State Captains, when called upon, help analyze bills CEDIA has identified as potentially problematic in their state. ·       State Captains are often asked to attend legislative hearings and give testimony if necessary supporting CEDIA's position. ·       Promote CEDIA member involvement and program engagement.   Time Commitment Level Year-long commitment, though they may not need to do anything if no problematic bills or regulations are introduced in their state in that year.  State Captains can continue to serve the following year. If, as sometimes happens, there is not a bill or regulation in their state that concerns CEDIA during a given session, they will probably not hear from CEDIA, aside from periodic government affairs updates from the program.
