Voice This!

In this episode, Erika Hall - author of "Just Enough Research", "Conversational Design" and co-founder of Mule Design Studio – joins Millani to examine why it’s important to take a moment to look beyond the technology and focus on your audience and the value you’re providing them.

Topics include leveraging minimalist design to empower constantly connected users, where humanist design principles belong in business, and the constant competition for users’ attention that can follow you into bed, at work, and yes, even into your shower.

Join Millani and Ilarna as they explore the lessons Ilarna learned from her early success as a voice app developer.

Topics include monitoring your product's performance with KPIs, Ilarna's views on moving from voice app concept to public iterations, and tips and resources for novice practitioners. Plus, some discussion around the satisfying and seamless experiences offered by personalization in voice apps, and the privacy concerns among users that might follow.

Ilarna Nche holds many titles such as voice app developer, business owner, Alexa Champion and much more. Ilarna has succeeded so much within the voice app space in such a short period of time, it's hard to believe she's only been in it for 3 years.

Join Millani and Tim as they trace Tim's journey into voice tech work, discuss how voice interfaces can help reclaim our time and keep us engaged with the world around us, and explore the present and future of voice UI.

Tim co-founded VoiceTechGlobal so that passionate voice practitioners could have a platform to convene, learn, and build together. He also directs Civic Lab, where cross-functional specialists create voice products for social good. Tim is a techie who's always been intrigued with sci-fi, and has been a designer for web and mobile until venturing into voice in the past few years.
