    How to Use Your Dreams to Design Services / Courtney Morgan / Ep. #219

    You've never heard this on the Show before...

    I'm referring to a design tool that most people disregard, even laugh about when they first hear about it.

    They say it's childish, something you can't take seriously in a professional context.

    But as you'll hear in today's conversation, this tool holds immense power.

    Not only that, it helps you better align with your true self and what you truly want to contribute to the world.

    And the best thing? You already have this tool in your possession. We all do.

    So, what is this magical tool?

    It's your dreams.

    Now, I know what you're thinking. Dreams, really?!

    But hear me out, it's actually not that crazy.

    Why do we always talk about design thinking and design doing, and not about design dreaming?

    If anything, I'd argue that the times we live in demand we dream more to envision a better future.

    Our amazing guest, Courtney Morgan, helps us tap into the power of our dreams.

    She shares practical examples of the power of collective dreaming.

    We address the misconceptions around dreaming and discuss how to get people to tap into and share their dreams in a design process.

    You'll notice that the conversation doesn't begin with dreams, but we naturally gravitate in that direction and fall down the rabbit hole.

    So, if you want to go beyond the usual design tools and methods and tap into something truly transformative... make sure you don't miss this episode.

    A simple practice to become more aware of your dreams is to start writing them down. This is what I've incorporated into my morning routine. Very curious to see what effects this will have in a few months.

    Enjoy and keep making a positive impact.

    Key Lessons from a Service Design Community / #Circle Special

    This one is a bit different...

    Not the usual interview that you're used to.

    In this episode, you'll actually hear me answering the questions.

    Why? Well, it's become a bit of a tradition to start the year by reflecting on the lessons learned while building the Circle community.

    The Circle started 3.5 years ago as an idea to see what would happen if we created a safe space for in-house service design professionals to connect and share regularly.

    Today, it's grown to a healthy size with members from companies across the globe and in almost any industry you can imagine — from big tech to church organizations (I kid you not!). Service design professionals are everywhere these days.

    I'm very grateful for where the community is today, but it certainly hasn't been a straight line up.

    Designing a service (which is essentially what our community is) for service designers is quite hard, who would have thought? ;)

    So, for this episode, I sat down with Ru Butler who's one of our Circle Council members to discuss the biggest wins, challenges, and ambitions for the coming year.

    Even if you're not working in-house, I think you'll still enjoy this behind-the-scenes look at how we're thinking about and trying to design our community.

    I'd love to hear what you think of this episode format. Would you like to hear it more often? How could we make it better? Any other feedback is welcome, too.

    Send me a message or reach out on LinkedIn.

    Happy 2025 and take care,

    Marc

    Journey Management in 2025: Trends, Challenges, and Predictions / Jochem van der Veer / Ep. #218

    First of all, I want to wish you a very happy 2025.

    We're starting the new year with a bang.

    Journey Management has been a hot topic for the last two years, and for good reason.

    The shift from mapping to management might seem small, but it's a major change in how we and our clients approach things.

    If you've been following the Show for a while, you know we are keeping up with these developments as they unfold.

    So, I thought it would be great to invite a good friend and long-time partner of the Show, Jochem van der Veer, back to kick 2025 off with some predictions.

    As CEO of TheyDo, Jochem is building one of the most innovative companies in this space. So I think it's fair to say that he has a front-row seat to how companies are adopting (or not) Journey Management.

    In this conversation, we discuss how journey management has evolved, the challenges of scaling it, which organizations are succeeding, and what's next (including AI's influence).

    Oh, and we announce a new conference...

    Join us for a great episode that's going to give you a head start on your Journey Management journey this year.

    What are YOUR predictions for this year? Leave a comment on YouTube (or Spotify). It'll be fun to revisit them next year 🙂

    Enjoy the conversation, and once again Happy 2025!

    Take care,

    ~ Marc

    Stop designing WITH your users! There is a better way. / Sloan Leo Cowan / Ep. #217

    There's a problem with the current design process that often goes unnoticed...

    A problem that can lead to less-than-ideal outcomes or, even worse, harm certain communities.

    To understand this, we must acknowledge our huge responsibility as design professionals. We're often the only ones advocating for our users' needs, the voice of those who aren't in the room.

    It's a privilege we shouldn't take lightly.

    We make decisions, and judgment calls for the people we're designing for. Of course, we do our best with the best intentions, but we always will fall short.

    Why? Because we aren't the users. We don't live their lives or experience their struggles.

    Sure, let there be no doubt: having someone advocate for users is a good start, but it's not enough.

    We can do better; we must do better.

    Our guest, ​Sloan Leo Cowan​, helps us see what "better" looks like.

    The key is to move away from "designing for" or even "designing with" users and move towards "designing by" them. It means giving up control and power. Sound impossible?

    Sloan Leo shares practical examples of how they've achieved this in their work.

    This episode will show you a way forward if you care about creating more inclusive and equitable work.

    Stop designing WITH your users! There is a better way.

    As you'll hear, Sloan Leo's perspective on design challenges the status quo. We really need this to push the boundaries of design and ensure it stays relevant.

    Keep making a positive impact!

    Take care,

    The Secrets behind Research that Scales / Kate Towsey / Ep. #216

    There is no service design...

    Without high-quality research.

    Sure, we all know that.

    But doing good research is hard.

    Kate Towsey, often called the inventor of the ResearchOps field, can certainly attest to this.

    If you're a dedicated listener of the show, you might remember Kate from our conversation about a year ago where she shared that she was writing a book.

    Well, that book, titled "Research that Scales", has officially been published!

    And with a 4.9/5 rating on Amazon, it seems to have struck a chord with readers.

    Of course, we had to get Kate back on the show to discuss it.

    In this conversation we delve into topics like:

    • Do we need to scale research, and if so why?
    • What does "scale" actually mean in the context of research?
    • When should you start thinking about scaling?
    • What are the key steps to scaling research?
    • What role can AI play in all of this? Will it take over our jobs?
    • Why did it take Kate 3.5 years to publish the book?

    And as always, that's just the tip of the iceberg.

    It's hard to imagine a service design professional who wouldn't be interested in the topics we cover in this episode.

    Good research isn't just a nice-to-have; it's a must.

    Without giving away too many spoilers, I found it fascinating that it's not actually research that you need to (or can) scale, but something else. Something that we as a community are pretty good at.

    Can you guess what it is?

    Enjoy and keep making a positive impact!

    The RIGHT way to do strategy in an uncertain world? / Peter Compo / Ep. #215

    What is strategy... A plan for how you intend to achieve your goals? That's how a lot of people define strategy. But there's a problem with this rigid approach...

    As Mike Tyson wisely said once: "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face." Most strategies are too prescriptive about how the goal needs to be achieved.

    But we live in a VUCA world where it's getting harder and harder to predict what will happen, even just weeks ahead. The sphere of what an organization can control is shrinking (and control is an illusion anyway).

    What seemed like a wise action last week might be irrelevant today, thanks to new technology, a sudden global crisis, or a certain election outcome...

    Following your strategy in this scenario might mean you're executing what you agreed to, but it could very well lead you away from your intended goal.

    So, when there is so little we can control and predict, does that mean we shouldn't do any strategizing at all? Certainly not. We just need to adopt a more emergent approach.

    We still need a plan to align everyone, but one that allows for more flexibility and deciding in the moment what the right next step is.

    What does this type of strategy look like, and how do we get there? That's something ​Peter Compo​ has written ​a great book​ about, and I've invited him on the Show to share his learnings with us.

    We talk about:

    • Why research is becoming an increasingly important capability for any organization.
    • How we can know we'll achieve our goals if we don't know at the start which actions to take.
    • And how to help an organization used to control and prediction embrace uncertainty and flexibility.

    I know this episode will resonate with many service design professionals. It ties strongly to our mantra of "doing the right things" and not just focusing on "doing things right."

    Strategy can be a very abstract term without much substance. But what I appreciated in our conversation is that Peter makes things super practical. It's time to roll up your sleeves and get to work on your strategy.

    Enjoy and keep making a positive impact.

    Why People Aren't Listening to You - And How to Fix That / Gabrielle Dolan / Ep. #214

    I remember being subscribed to this email newsletter from a guy named Josh, all about email marketing (kind of meta)...

    Every single day, a new email from Josh would pop up in my inbox, and I'd open it right away.

    These emails were different, a bit weird even, but in the best way possible. Each one would start with something that felt totally random, a story about something Josh experienced. No mention of email marketing whatsoever.

    But every time I was hooked. I just had to know how the story ended.

    And then, bam, right at the end, with just two or three lines he'd tie it all back to email marketing in a way that just clicked.

    Those emails weren't just informative; they were actually enjoyable, to the point that I looked forward to them.

    Now being able to hold someone's attention like that always seemed like a magic superpower to me... but I learned that it's not.

    In this episode, Gabrielle Dolan, who's been teaching the craft of storytelling for over 20 years, reveals how you can grow your storytelling skills and use them to communicate your message in a way that stick and, most of all inspires action.

    And as service design professionals, we know that getting people to take action is critical for change but also very challenging.

    So whether you consider yourself a natural storyteller or not, this episode is packed with practical wisdom you won't want to miss.

    Josh, by the way, stopped sending his daily emails a while ago, but as you've noticed his lessons have stuck with me.

    Enjoy the episode and keep making a positive impact!

    Confessions of a Journey Management Pioneer / Florian Vollmer / Ep. #213

    Sure, everyone's talking about Journey Management, but few are actually doing it well... It's one thing to map out customer journeys, but quite another to truly manage them.

    The frameworks and models look great on paper, but reality is often far messier. Most organizations struggle to get a handle on even one journey, let alone a dozen!

    So I'm excited that Florian Vollmer, a true pioneer in this field, returns to the Service Design Show to share his hard-won wisdom. You might remember him from his previous appearance on the Show where he talked about managing 100+ journeys at NCR.

    What's fascinating is that Florian got a rare opportunity when starting his new role at Autodesk – a chance to rebuild a Journey Management practice from the ground up, applying all the lessons from his previous experience.

    This is your classic "I wish I knew everything I know now at the start of this project. It would have been completed twice as fast and at half the cost."This time, we dive deep into the nitty-gritty of Journey Management, tackling tough questions like:

    • Who really owns the journey?
    • Are dedicated tools essential or just a distraction?
    • Why getting granular at the touchpoint level is essential?
    • What are the biggest challenges to launching Journey Management inside an organization?

    And the million-dollar question: how do you get buy-in and funding when you're just starting out?

    So if you're already knee-deep in Journey Management or just starting to explore it, I'm sure you'll appreciate Florian's honest perspective from the trenches.

    One of my biggest takeaways from this conversation was that, as Florian explains in detail, this is really hard work. So you have to have patience and be kind to yourself. Amen to that!

    Enjoy the conversation and keep making a positive impact.

    Take care,

    ~ Marc

    A New Approach to Measuring Design's Impact / Stacey Barr / Ep. #212

    This might be the most profound conversation I've recorded this year...


    What if I told you that the puzzle of how to measure and quantify the value of design has already been solved?


    I know, it sounds too good to be true, right? But hear me out.


    We all struggle to express the value of design in metrics that businesses understand. The result?


    We often cut ourselves short because we can't present the impact of our work in a neat spreadsheet. It's frustrating, especially when we see decisions being made that make no sense to us based on "our data".


    There are many reasons why it's hard to quantify the return on investment of (service) design. We're creating value on a systemic level. We're doing it in co-creation, so attribution is a nightmare. The effects of our work sometimes take a long time to materialize. And the list goes on.


    So, is all hope lost? Do we throw our hands up in the air? Of course not.


    Recently, while researching better alternatives to hierarchical goal structures (which are inherently broken), I stumbled upon an article by Stacey Barr. I had never heard of Stacey or her work before. This discovery led me down a massive rabbit hole.


    Stacey is a leading expert on performance measurement. Over the last 20 years, she has developed and refined a methodology to measure, track, and improve performance that's being used in over 40 countries.


    The more I read about this methodology, the more I felt that this could be the breakthrough we've been looking for in the design field. I have to be careful not to raise expectations too high, but...


    Stacey is an unusual guest for the Show. Someone who's completely outside of our design bubble. And that's why this turned out to be such an interesting and eye-opening conversation.


    In this episode, you'll learn that there is a systemic and reliable approach to figuring out what and how you can measure the impact of design. You can take this approach and apply it to your work today! And best of all, as you'll hear, the approach builds upon a lot of the elements that we as a design community are already familiar with.


    I hope this episode will show you that we can actually get to measuring the things that matter, not just the things that are easy to measure.


    And maybe, even maybe, get you a little bit excited about measurement (yes, that's actually possible)!


    A part that I really liked in our conversation is when we rolled up our sleeves, took an abstract goal like "increasing the sense of belonging," and went step-by-step on how to break this down into more concrete and quantifiable metrics. This exercise really brought things home for me.

    Keep making a positive impact!
