  • Great interviews that step beyond “101”

    This is an excellent podcast that at this point has a long archive of episodes worth listening to. The host and guests frame the information in ways that are inviting to newcomers to Design Thinking, but that also progressively step farther from “101-level” information into deeper advice that benefits regular practitioners of DT.

  • Mycket matnyttigt!

    Jag har i och för sig bara lyssnat på första avsnittet än så länge, men tyckte att det var urbra, och hoppas att de andra avsnitten håller samma höga kvalitet.
