Carol Massa 'The Conscious Designer: Exploring Inner Values and Outer Realms'
Today on the show, we speak with Carol Massa. Carol is a phenomenal service designer, based in the U.S.A.
In this episode, we speak about the nuances between strategic design and service design and we really get into detail about the two. We find out how Carol sees what some of the organisations have successfully done to introduce service design into their organisation.
Carol is an incredible educator, she works with the service design network and runs a great course called Strategic Design in Organisations.
We talk about the key learnings from that course in particular.
I had a lot of fun speaking with Carol and I know you’ll enjoy this one too.

Heather Hansen ‘Unmuted: Breaking Language Barriers and Redefining Communication in Organizations’
Hello and welcome to another episode of This is HCD. I'm delighted to have you with me for another cracking episode this time with Heather Hansen.. author of the book Unmuted a fantastic book for anyone practicing their craft in organisations who strive to improve comprehension, understanding and better and more effective use of language.
As many of you will probably know, my name is Gerry Scullion and I'm a service designer based in Ireland. I offer service design training, user experience design training and also my Visualisation Methods for Change Makers course on my website and offer this in house for businesses. So if you're in an organisation and looking for training, please get in touch with me.
So let me tell you about Heather.
Heather is based in Singapore where they run Global Speech Academy, an organisation focussed on improving the quality of communication across the departments and teams. We chat in great detail about language bias. Heather comes from the US and we speak about all of that jargon that permeates the tech business such as “ping me” or “circle back” - where this comes from what and not only what underpins it but also the effect this has on a day to day basis. It’s exclusionary and exclusive.
