This week I met with Angus Chapman. Angus is a Brisbane-based Industrial Designer who has worked for a range of in-house and consultancy design teams over his long career. Currently, Angus works for Topcon, where uses his design background to positively influence his design team. At Topcon, Angus works on a range of projects from agriculture to defence.

In the podcast, we discuss the positives and negatives of working in an in-house design team and how that experience compares to consultancy design work. We also discuss the benefit of a design background in Angus's role as a senior manager. In addition, we discuss the move away from domestic manufacturing in Australia, where Angus gives his perspective on whether he sees manufacturing returning in the coming years.

If there is someone you would like to see on the podcast reach out to me through the comments section or through social media, and I will be happy to get them on.

I hope you enjoy the podcast, and if you do would you consider subscribing and sharing the podcast with a friend to help grow the platform.
