SXSW 2019
Self Reflection to Improve Your Design Process
Description:
In a single hour, Jess Lowry of Austin’s homegrown design consultancy Exploration x Design will take you through simple exercises to answer the fundamental question, “What matters to me and why?”
This method surfaces what shapes you as an individual and the capacities, values and accountabilities you bring to each project. You’ll be provided resource material to bring back to your team and distribute throughout your organization.
You’ll gain insights into your values and capabilities and how these come into play in projects through the way you approach learning and change. You will clarify the sets of biases and perceptions you are embedded in.
With increased self awareness you'll be empowered to make more informed decisions, and learn to check your biases and assumptions.
