This is HCD: Human-Centred Design, UX & Service Design episodes

  • Cyril Secourgeon 'The secrets of successful stakeholder engagement in large organisations'
    In this episode, we caught up with Cyril Secourgeon, the Principal Human Centered Designer practitioner at Westpac group, one of Australia’s big four banks.
    We discussed the methods that the wider HCD team in Westpac use to help keep stakeholders engaged. Cyril explains the signs to look out for with engaged and disengaged stakeholders and how to work with them to build trust. He takes us through the project process right from the start of projects, and the engagement dos and don’ts when working in large-scale organisations.

      Kirsten Mann, VP Product and Experience at Aconex explains that organisations are not designed to value design. 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.

        In this episode, we ask the big questions about human-centred design and large organizations. Why design teams alone, are not enough to become customer lead, and why we need to look at a sustainable way to scale human-centred design in organizations.
