@Redjotter @carolaverschoor @adamstjohn @avfletcher @IamKathrynGrace @MikePress I can talk to you about my journey, I’ve turned a real corner in the last 18 months and would be happy to share what I’ve learned as I’ve matured as a designer

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@NorthwardsDS @emmablomkamp I think we are broadly talking about the same thing, not sure in the detail but generally yes! And you are totally welcome 🤘

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@NorthwardsDS @emmablomkamp Agreed re evangelism. Value is key. Measuring it is also important.

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@emmablomkamp @NorthwardsDS It can put some humans at the Centre and not others. Purism has its place, and it’s benefits. It’s the shoving stuff down people’s throats that doesn’t work so well

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@NorthwardsDS @emmablomkamp If you can get an outcome then great. Righteousness can isolate, often leading to no outcomes. There is a cost.

@metalpaysme This app is super simple to use, I have a PhD in intuitive use with older adults and I give it the thumbs up. The real test is coming soon though, when you can put it in your own grandma's hands! As these guys said, if she can use a mobile, you're all good!

@benhamley We weren’t just rambling after all! Great catchup @benhamley, thanks!

@humansindesign BA’s seem to be the ones that would traditionally do that (write reqs) but many don’t understand HCD and how to hold intent through reqs

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@humansindesign Yea, right. We don’t know how to build things that feed adequately into delivery, and delivery doesn’t know how to receive design input.

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@humansindesign Talking to a friend in construction. Architecture > engineering > build. We haven’t figured the middle part out 4 design let alone the last

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@humansindesign Totally agree that this is a problem. I want to talk about it.

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@JBMelbs Interesting! A good scale is awesome.

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@WeAreMeld 👍 was a great night. Thanks for hosting. Might see you this arvo 😁

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@martinsw I'm super glad to that is your experience too. These approaches need to be applied and then we all need to learn from it.

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@martinsw great contribution last night at @WeAreMeld. The @berkanainst model I mentioned is here: https://t.co/ONUNC2MfE7 #meldevents

[Gemma Ann White @gemmaannwhite]

@simonlawry Great talk at #contentmelb. I liked the bit about listening for the meaning between the words in the problem -> insight stages.

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@gemmaannwhite thanks Gemma! Glad you liked it!

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@gemmaannwhite thank you!

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]

@ambermatthews went to send you a thank you note to that email by hitting reply, it bounced. Should it have?

[Simon Lawry @simonlawry]
