Design Doing
07/07/20 • 33 min
For our sixth episode, we explore the case for when it’s time to stop thinking around your product ideas and time to put things into action. Design doing!
A lot of the time it can be easy to snuggle up in the 'comfort blanket' of endless research without committing to making anything other than documents full of theory.
We argue the point, that while design thinking is definitely valid, design doing is the way forward. Get out there earlier and test your ideas.
We discuss the Design Sprint, the ultimate hybrid of thinking and doing, and how Matt learnt the importance of getting practical while baking sourdough during lockdown.
You do not want to miss the knowledge bombs within.
Get this in your ears, pronto.

The Power of Purpose
For our fifth episode, we take it back to what really matters...Your Purpose!
At Pack, we're passionate about purpose and believe it should be at the core of every organisation and product. We discuss the good the bad and the ugly when it comes to purpose with Matt's funky purpose quiz and Dom hits us with his mate Harveys purpose facts which you do not want to miss.
Find out about our purpose at Pack and what helped us define it, and why it matters to us!
Find out who you are. And do it with purpose.
