Aparna Rae on why diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives stall without structural change, and why transparency is the most powerful lever organisations consistently underuse.
Alison Coward on building teams that thrive through her five-pillar framework of alignment, cohesion, communication, design, and change, drawn from her book Workshop Culture.
Kate Tarling on how large organisations can create successful services by changing how they work, not just what they deliver, drawing on her book The Service Organization.
Dr Pierce Otlhogile-Gordon on the complexity of design and innovation across the world, and the crucial difference between transformation and actual liberation in practice.
Sheryl Cababa on her book Closing the Loop, using systems thinking and equity-centred design to tackle complex problems beyond the screen.
Alex Schmidt on her book Deliberate Intervention, arguing that policy and design must work together to blunt the harms of emerging technology.
Abby Covert on her book Stuck? Diagrams Help, a field guide to thinking through diagrams and making information architecture accessible to everyone.
Natalie Dunbar on building and scaling a content strategy practice, the flavours of content work, and key inflection points as teams grow.
