Had a lovely day exploring new materials and techniques in a sketchbook workshop today. Was a delightful way to have a bit of time for me, even better that it was a gift.

Call yourself an allsort? I’m not sure this is up there with a pure chocolate kitkat finger in the pantheon of confectionary errors, but is one I’ve never seen before. Now you’ve seen it too…

Why do so many strategic initiatives fail? Too often, organisations focus entirely on the target customer experience, without thinking about how they’ll make it real. They want to create a new experience, but their operating model holds them back.

Design Leadership Chronicles by Marzia Aricò landed this weekend. Very relatable and love the graphic novel format. The first three stories are all incredibly relevant to me at the moment.

One of those days when you can only thank people - friends who knew CPR, paramedics who can defib, pilots who fly helicopters, and the hospital staff able to do everything that follows. Now to get on the road and visit my bro after his adventure yesterday 😵‍💫

Thinking that end to end service maps and more detailed customer journeys can help navigate from systems thinking space eg causal loops, into where interventions could be explored. Then working with something like COM-B to explore those intervention spaces. 2/n

Currently thinking about systems maps, service maps and customer journey maps and how they help describe the terrain of a service in different but related ways. Can anyone point to examples of systems mapping and service/journey mapping usefully done together? 1/n

Way back in March I ran a workshop for designers to discuss the potential impact of AI on our roles, and on the people who run and use the services we design. I finally, FINALLY wrote it up here: www.timpaul.co.uk/posts/talkin...

If you’ve ever heard someone say “If we automated X, it would free people up to do Y”, and thought 🤔, I just wrote a thing about that: www.timpaul.co.uk/posts/automation-and-the-jevons-paradox/

I left my comfort zone some time ago and wondering how and when I’ll get back… I guess it expands over time following along as you spend more time out of it, so maybe it’s not far behind me, who knows. Wondering if I turn round fast enough I might see it.

I wrote a thing about aging at work. As a woman in tech, the window between being too young to take seriously and past your prime is an incredibly small one. Why is that? And what would happen if we refused to become invisible at work? www.reworked.co/employee-exp...
