ImagineNation LAST Generating Creative Conversations Presentation Janet Sernack
A creative conversation transfers ideas from one mind to another, it also allows you to reveal and remove all obstacles in the way of making creative ideas and inventions happen. It even allows you to see opportunities, realise possibilities and easily solves real-life, personal and business problems.
It’s not that we’ve forgotten how to hold genuine conversations. The problem is much deeper. We’ve stopped learning how to hold a genuine conversation.
The good news is we can all learn it. All this ability demands is the ability to be observant, having a core skill-set and following the four key steps in the generative discovery cycle.
Co-presented by Jay Hyett and Ruma Dak on the 30th of July 2019 at LAST Conference in Melbourne, Australia.
In this talk we shared seven habits of highly effective teams, based on their work and experience at Envato and within the agile community. They'll also share some tips to help build these habits.
KC Glaser of Kory Chris Productions shared his thoughts on managing the creative business process at the Rasmussen College Design Lecture Series, File>New on August 11, 2011.
10 Easy Ways to Irritate Your Design Team
Slides from the NUX7 talk by Jane Austin, Friday 19th October 2018.
2018.nuxconf.uk / nuxuk.org
Synopsis
How can good design be integrated into your business profitably? Jane will answer this question by considering the ‘anti-problem’. She will share 10 ways designers and business people can guarantee their behaviours and activities will ensure they never see eye-to-eye, their efforts will be wasted and everyone involved will know it is not their fault.
You will probably recognise most of these techniques in action in your own organisation. That is the anti-pattern.
If things are going to change for the better, do the opposite.

Art and copy: bridging the gap between UX, design and content | InVision Desi...Lauren Pope
In the 1960s, there was a creative revolution in advertising when someone decided that art and copy should try sitting in the same room. Applying a similar idea today, and getting content and design practitioners to work together more closely can transform your work for the better. In this deck, I look at:
- the importance of having a strategic ‘North Star’;
- how to come up with working principles for a blended team;
- pair working and how it can transform how you approach things.
4 Creative And Challenging Tips For Poster DesignRahul Aggarwal
Do you know when were the first posters created and where? The origin of poster dates back to the mid-19th century and France was the place where they were created.

Grown from the basic idea of advertisement for which they are designed, many challenges have attributed to the change in their design.

How to Manage Creative People – Top Tips from the ExpertsWebdam
We know why you’re here.
You manage creatives or at least you want to, and they’re a tough bunch to figure out. As much as you might want to sometimes, you can’t just treat them like everyone else. – they’re different and they do important work that the rest of us simply can’t replicate with any sort of quality.
So let’s figure this thing out: communication, motivation, criticism – the whole nine yards. To help us out with that, we called in dozens of the most incredible art directors, creative officers and brand managers on the planet. They were gracious enough to give us a little insight into how they get such impressive results from their creative teams.
And now we’re sharing that good stuff with you. Enjoy!

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.

Do good work june2013
1. Do good work
5 ideas on how to make good work
& do what you like to do everyday
Observation & insight from life as a creative professional
Working in great agencies, with inspiring colleagues
Solving brand & marketing problems
Producing good work with others in key global markets
2. Quality Material. Careful
Inspection. Good
Workmanship. All combined in
an effort to give you a perfect
painting.
John Baldessair – American Painter Born 1931.
That’s the painting.
3. A simple message in beautifully rendered black type hand-drawn
on a cream surface.
The original is in the J. Paul Getty Museum L.A.
A postcard reproduction is on my office pin board.
4. Here’s the thought
Each component of this message reminds me of what we do as
creative professionals and why:
all combined
to give you
a perfect painting – or in our case, a perfect brand,
design, structure, idea, image, campaign
We should seek perfection more often.
5. Mies van der Rohe – one of the pioneers of modern architecture
6. Mies van de Rohe the great German-
American pioneer of modern architecture
was asked by Chicago students – what is
your secret?
He simply stated: ‘Do Good Work’
8. Average work is just that - average.
The difference between simply adequate
and good work - is more often about the
intent, purpose and determination of the
designer, the commitment to do good
work, and the persistence that brings
inspiration to life.
9. It’s a matter of design, how we
design our life
How do we measure our life?
By what we do every day.
Essentially that’s a design problem, and
one we can have an effect on.
10. 5 ideas on the design problem
#1
Give yourself permission
to make
constructive criticism
at all levels
11. # 2
Choose what you want to do & how
you spend your time.
What do you like to do every day?
You can design a life that works
based on what matters to you!
12. # 3
Connect with individuals
and mentors of all ages & disciplines
Design is a problem-solving process
Collaboration expands the range of
inspiration & opportunity
13. # 4
Find the quest in question &
the inform in information.
Curiosity is your friend.
14. # 5
Be consistent in your purpose
Do some good work
Have some fun
Be clear to others*
* Inspired by the words of Richard Saul Wurman – architect, designer, polymath,
coined the term ‘Information Design’ & founder of TED
