Insights from a weekend-long design learning and doing experience. Why it matters: My latest work has allowed me to share design concepts with employees at the SD YMCA and students participating in a Designathon at UC San Diego. I spent some time with students to learn about how these experiences impacted them and what their experience was like and learned some valuable insights about how people experience learning design in community, and some potential opportunities to collaborate with forward-thinking organizations to create talent incubators and hiring pipelines.
Wonderful reflection and newly discovered insights, Brian. I am delighted by your idea to use the design jam format for recruiting talent.
Thanks so much. Doing some quick testing it feels like there is some good momentum behind supporting it. Excited to see what might result!
