August 08, 2022Tech's Undeniable Role in the Global Economy with Paul McCarthy | S2 E9
“Pine Trees have these needles that they drop around them, so they stung all the competition beneath that pine tree. It means that when you’re a plant who’s trying to compete with that pine tree, there’s not much chance you’ll be able to grow in its circumference.”
The metaphor of the pine tree implies that the new rules of competition have changed not only in the tech space but also in the global economy. It is also undeniable that this difficulty is fueled by the democratically-elected monopolies that either give us business learning points and benefits or greatly dominate the industry – adding more tension to the competitive marketplace of tech.
Paul X. McCarthy tackles this state of market power and dominant companies that are taking over the power/control in the technology industry. He also tackles how research and computational data science can help understand human behavioral trends and the productivity and impact of individuals on businesses.
Paul is the CEO and Co-founder of the League of Scholars, a research leader, an author, and an adjunct professor at UNSW Australia

May 05, 2022How UX is Shaping Societies with Paul Boag | S2 EP2
In this honest and fun-filled episode, Paul Boag answers the question: Why UX?
With his expertise and engaging personality, Paul is the person that you want to have coffee with if you wish to understand the psychology behind the look and feel of your favorite websites.
His career in the field of user experience (UX) design began when UX wasn’t even a word. In college, he took up a degree in Graphic Design and started his design journey with 16 colors, creating 16x16 pixel icons for his first projects.
About three decades later, he is now one of the most sought-after leaders in this emerging industry – designing web pages of global brands, speaking in various international engagements, and influencing the new generation of web designers through his books and newsletter.
Fun fact: In 2005, Paul started the first-ever web design podcast: The Boagworld UX Show – an award-winning show about digital strategy, service design, and user experience with over 380 episodes.
