In episode 27 I talk to Udhaya Kumar Padmanabhan, Global Strategic Design Director at Designit, a Wipro Company. Certainly one of the most inspiring conversations I had during the podcast. Udhaya shares inspiring insights from his proven track record on the intersection of entrepreneurship and design consulting for companies around the world.
the importance to “unlearn”, having the humility to learn, even if you have been successful in an area (the beginner mindset)
how to communicate design as a strategic tool and the power to use it in strategic capacities
why designer having the ability and opportunity to jump into new industries and experience different verticals
the difference of founding and scaling a design company versus a product/tech startup, learnings from his experience
the importance of being user research driven, focusing on ethnographic research before designing
