Now that we can do anything,
what will we do?

What about experiences that
remain undesigned?

How far can we push the
edge of design to help
tackle social challenges?

And what’s our
responsibility when we work
on these types of challenges?

“The UX for Good visit has challenged
our thinking and resulted in consensus
that visitors leaving KGM must be
empowered by their experience to go
away and take action.

5 INSIGHTS

2 BUILD BRIDGES
3 LOOK BOTH WAYS
4 LAYER THE EXPERIENCE
5 BE HUMAN-CENTERED

41.
CHECK FOR READY
POSITION
Seek understanding for the
organization’s ability to understand,
integrate and sustain the design
ideas.
Not understanding it can either stall or
halt progress.

42.
BUILD BRIDGES
Take the responsibility to bridge the
language gap between design and the
organization.
Be the translator - great designers
inherently possess those skills.
2

43.
LOOK BOTH WAYS
Look both inside and outside the
organization and problem space with
curiosity.
Innovation isn’t always something
new to the world, it only has to be new
to a market or industry.

44.
LAYER THE EXPERIENCE
Take responsibility for designing for…
the design of the product/service
experience for its audience,
the experience of the process for your
stakeholders and
the enjoyment of the challenge and
project for the design team

45.
BE HUMAN-CENTERED
Fall in love with the problem.
Personally care.
Technology evolves fast. Make sure to
put people first.
Professionally and ethically care.
