Barbara is a UX lead in Shopify and in this episode, Barbara is joined by Aman Braich, Principle designer for Intuit Australia, as well as Mark Catanzariti, service designer at Telstra. In today’s episode, we discuss the industry’s obsession with redesign.There seems to be a culture of throwing out existing designs rather than going back to perfect or tweak them. Today we explore why we do that, how to maybe stop doing that and what opportunities exist if we spend less time redesigning and throwing out perfectly good things. We take a look at how we can focus more on mindset rather than methodology, to build – or should we say re-furbish – a more sustainable design future. Take a listen!Key Points From This Episode:How Barbara got involved with human centered design.Disposable design: Why we throw out perfectly good things.Why should businesses care about disposable design?Suggesting alternatives to the businessThe obsession with metrics.Methodology versus mindset.How do we know if we are making a system better?Behind every merchant, there is a story.Barbara’s re-design stories from Central Bank.Ditching superiority complexes in the industry.Barbara’s advice for emerging HCD talent.And much more!Creators & Guests Gerry Scullion - Host Stef Murphy - Producer Like what we do?

Instead, organisations are focused on short-term financial metrics instead of delivering great customer and business outcomes. To change the narrative and to help organisations see the value in design, product folks and designers need to continually engage the Executive team in conversation and demonstrate the value of design by solving broader business problems.Creators & Guests Gerry Scullion - Host Stef Murphy - Producer Like what we do?

We discussed where the service design and UX professions intersect in respects to the skills and activities that are done on a day to day basis. We didn't get into the definition of what service design is or isn't or any of the other semi contentious issues around the two practices. We did, however, drill deeper into the practices and daily rituals that Eduardo believes better serves both service design and UX practitioners, and most importantly the client and/or project in question.Creators & Guests Gerry Scullion - Host Stef Murphy - Producer Like what we do?

My name is Gerry Scullion, and I’m a Human Centered Design Practitioner based in Australia. The episode that you are about to hear was recorded in Melbourne CBD so would like to acknowledge the Boonwarung people of the Kulin nation as the traditional custodians of the land where we meet today and pay respect to their elders, both past and present.Chirryl-Lee Ryan is what she calls, a transdisciplinary design practitioner, merging many design disciplines into a super force. Anyone who is familiar with Chirryl will know she is a no-holds-barred speaker. She says what she means, and mean what she says and is a force to be reckoned with.We were recently together on a Design Panel about Designing for Social Impact for Academy XI in Sydney and had a whale of a time.Kelsey Schwinn (GM of Today), Gerry Scullion (Director of Humana), Chirryl-Lee Ryan (Transdisciplinary Designer), Andy Polaine (Regional APAC Design Director for Fjord) at the Academy XI ‘Design for Social Impact’ in Sydney, February 2018.

This episode builds on that but goes deeper into the work that UNSW is undertaking about redesigning the university with a focus on enabling a culture that will better place their students for the future.What's so good about this combination of Andy and Simon is not only have they worked together before but is the relationship between Andy's service design history and his academic past in teaching in Europe. Together with Simon, they approach the subject of the future of education with pragmatism.Simons email mentioned in this episode S.McIntyre@unsw.edu.auCreators & Guests Gerry Scullion - Host Stef Murphy - Producer Like what we do?

But in the 21st century, the name of the game is ‘innovation’. Those are two very different capabilities. Exploitation is about excelling at executing, and scaling products and services in a largely known environment. Innovation is about navigating the unknown, exploring possibilities, and experimenting with new ways of creating value for people with ever-evolving needs." Service Design, Product Management, UX are all part of the later. I'm really excited to get into this.

Jon is a graphic designer and illustrator but has worked across a broad spectrum of mediums in his career. Most of us will be familiar with Jons work, whether it be the first Firefox logo, or Spotify's icons, or ANZ customers in Australia will recognise his icons in their applications. Having worked with Jon many times over the years, I can honestly say he’s one of the best in the world at what he does, so was incredibly happy to have him on the show.Also joining in on the conversation was Principal Designer at Intuit, Aman Braich who is a brand expert and helping reshape the brand identity for Intuit both in Australia and the US. So I sandwiched between icon and brand gurus in this episode. We discussed the differences and similarities between icon and brand, governance of both, the importance of context in design, and much more.LinksView Jons work at Hicks DesignWatch Jon talk about The Icon Design ProcessRead Jons blogFollow Jon on TwitterConnect with Jon on LinkedInConnect with Aman Braich on LinkedInCreators & Guests Gerry Scullion - Host Stef Murphy - Producer Like what we do?
