Vimla Appadoo
Description
We chat to Vimla Appadoo, Service Designer at FutureGov and organiser of SheSaysManchester. A rising young star in the U.K digital and technology sector, Vim is passionate about the tech for good agenda and bringing user-centred services to the forefront of public sector innovation.
We hear about Vim founding her consultancy at the age of 21, and discuss the disparity in how young men and women experience their early careers. We explore the application of service design methodologies in government and why it's important to be conscious of power and privilege.
And finally, we take inspiration from hip hop legend 2Pac and grime artist Stormzy, and hear about Vim's adventures in boxing and powerlifting. An energising start to your weekend!
