Your team is a system. You just don’t see it yet.
by Farai Madzima
In the early 2000’s design systems changed the way we work. We shifted from designing pages to designing systems of components. We gained new tools and ways of seeing. Those tools prepared us to handle the scale and complexity that comes with designing for every device, everywhere. In 2020 many folks have had to work from home (or live at work depending on how you see it). We are reminded that work and life are connected in complex ways. What does it mean to be in a team today?

Learn what a behavior change designer does, how frameworks like COM-B and self-determination theory help create more engaging and effective products, and why behavior change design reduces the risk and uncertainty of marching toward an ambitious product vision.
