Lola Oyelayo-Pearson 'Understanding Money & Shaping experiences to empower entrepreneurs at Shopify'

We are building a global network of people doing human-centred work. Create an account, learn, listen, connect and network - for free → https://www.thisishcd.com/signup________________________Take the FREE Introduction to Journey Management course with Marc Stickdorn & Gerry Scullion → https://www.thisishcd.com/learning/introduction-to-journey-managementIn this episode i speak with Lola Oyelayo-Pearson from Shopify. Lola of a Director of UX, Money and we chat about what this actually means. We speak about the mission at Shopify to remain independent, and supporting entrepreneurship globally by making it easier to sell and creating a support network for their merchants. What really interested me, was the points about how Shopify makes money, and also not they share the risk in opening up available funds to enable businesses to succeed. That's a huge statement right there - and I can't think of many businesses who can walk the walk - many as you know talk the talk very well. We chat about what money means - and it's not just a system to enable a transactional relationship - it's visceral. It's real. It can empower. It can destroy. I was keen to hear their thoughts on how the western driven perspective of money could translate to markets in say, Africa and what that might look like. Creators & Guests Gerry Scullion - Host Stef Murphy - Producer ________________________Discover & Connect → https://www.thisishcd.com/directoryTrain my organisation → https://www.thisishcd.com/trainingClaim partner discounts → https://www.thisishcd.com/partnersPublish an Article → https://www.thisishcd.com/blogCourses → https://www.thisishcd.com/courses________________________

Markus Edgar Hormess 'Prototyping : Why you should burn requirements documents'

We are building a global network of people doing human-centred work. Create an account, learn, listen, connect and network - for free → https://www.thisishcd.com/signup________________________Take the FREE Introduction to Journey Management course with Marc Stickdorn & Gerry Scullion → https://www.thisishcd.com/learning/introduction-to-journey-managementIn this episode I speak with one of my colleagues at This is Doing, Markus Edgar Hormess. Markus’s name is one that many within the service design world will no doubt be familiar with, but nevertheless let me tell you a little bit about my guest today.Markus is based in Germany, is a trained physicist and partner at WorkPlayExperience. I look to Markus for many things within design, but I to his deep rooted passion with prototyping of services and just prototyping in general. The bits can so easily be trivialised or assumed are the moments that are missed and we chat at length about how to encourage prototyping generally within your organisation. We speak more around Play and what this means. What does the opposite of playfulness look like within organisations and again, how can we move the dial to become more likely to lean into the prototyping mindset.Creators & Guests Gerry Scullion - Host Stef Murphy - Producer ________________________Discover & Connect → https://www.thisishcd.com/directoryTrain my organisation → https://www.thisishcd.com/trainingClaim partner discounts → https://www.thisishcd.com/partnersPublish an Article → https://www.thisishcd.com/blogCourses → https://www.thisishcd.com/courses________________________
