March 28, 2018 Customer-Centric Arms Race
A conversation with Jason Hreha, Head of Product, Behavioral Sciences at Walmart and author (find his work here: The Behavioral Scientist), discussing the business application of human behavior principles. New digital channels or spaces where channels begin to overlap one another, like digital and in-store, impact human interaction and behavior in ways we’ve not considered before. Can what seems like strictly an academic study help to guide us in creating meaning and value in the products and experiences we design?

October 25, 2017 Data Isn’t a Silver Bullet
A conversation with Ali Madad, a thought leader on the topic of innovation. Design thinking, by the sounds of it, would be a strictly creative process. Because we have access to so much data, it can be difficult to determine what kind of data do you bring into your design process? Is there a difference in how you use design thinking and data in design versus technology innovation? And how do you find the appropriate place to introduce it, without causing friction in a process that’s already producing results?

October 18, 2017 No One Cares As Much As You Do
A conversation with Merci Grace, former Director of Product focused on Growth at Slack, on how user experience impacts conversions and user growth.

October 11, 2017 Differentiation is Not “Cool Stuff”
Today, we’re going to talk with Matthew Blakstad about the meaning behind a sometimes buzzy marketing term: differentiation. We’ve heard it used over and over again to describe those fundamental attributes that make an organization unique, but we don’t often talk about what it means to achieve differentiation. How do you quantify that? How do you make sure what you think are your key differentiators actually are, rather than just some wishful thinking on the part of your C-suite?

October 04, 2017 Get the People Right: Results Will Follow (with Jason Williford)
Today we speak with Jason Williford from Culture Index, a tool established by Gary Walstrom. If you’ve ever worked at an organization where people with different mindsets have to cooperate, you’ve probably spent some time thinking about what motivates people. It can be difficult to develop a culture that understands the motivation of both creative and analytical minds. Is it an operational challenge or a philosophical one? And, in business, why is it important to take on something that can seem to some just a matter of personalities?

September 27, 2017 You Can’t Test Taste (with Steven Gianakouros)
A conversation with Steven Gianakouros, a Design Manager on the Product Creative Team at Netflix, Los Angeles, on the term “data” and a specific metric – engagement. Engagement is often used to describe a whole group of behaviors, but what does it actually look like to measure engagement and try and incorporate those insights into both the design process, and the visual designs themselves?
