This final episode of Season 1 ends with a question. It might be one you have too. Maybe you decided to check out this podcast because you wish more products were designed in an inclusive way. Over the past few months, guests on this podcast have shared some great examples of inclusive design and innovation, but these aren’t exactly the norm (yet).

Joining me to explore some of the reasons why is Scott Berkun, author of How Design Makes the World, a book that aims to demystify design for everyone. We discuss why it’s so hard to design well and what organisations can do to accelerate good ideas. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to understand what good design means or how to be a better, and more responsible, designer.

If you haven’t yet left a 5-star rating or glowing review, this would be the perfect time to do so (it will help others discover this podcast while Season 2 is in the works). And did I mention our listener survey: https://bit.ly/madeforuspod. I’d be grateful if you could share your feedback there.

In today’s episode, Scott and I discuss:

  • The business and cultural reasons behind design choices
  • Key questions to ask early on in the design process
  • Why we should think twice about using the words ‘intuitive’ and ‘user-friendly’
  • How to assess the ROI of inclusivity
