Description
Design is a broad specification with many disciplines, and
naturally, with such an expansive set of tools, practices
and thought processes, it can feel seemingly impossible
to define. As a result, some have sought to create tightly
controlled representations of what design actually is.
However, this line of thinking can be to our detriment in
the ever evolving design landscape; leaving design out
of some rather important and influential conversations,
when it could (should) have a bigger role in general. Why?
Because design plays a role in pretty much everything we
do.
In this talk Joe will discuss the importance of designers embracing their role as empathy dealers, and the core
areas in which designers need to engage, be it as sales
people, business leaders, or technologists...because in the
end, it’s all just “fricking design”.
