  • My fav design podcast

    As a service designer I have to say this is my favorite show. Although SD seems like a hot topic right now, there’s few spaces where you can listen to professionals discuss about their current challenges and aspirations for the practice. I specially love to see representation from many places in the world, including guests from Mexico, my country :) Keep up the good work Marc!

  • Doesn’t answer harder questions

    The episode ‘ask harder questions’ points out the flaws in service design. By not being able to answer harder questions then: how to serve/sell more products the quickest so we have more revenues so our stakeholder are happy. My subscription ends here...
