From Prawn-star to PhD: Designing successful interactions for better human connections

30 Apr 2020

20min.

Creative entrepreneur turned academic Peter Mandeno shares the design principles that turn interactions into meaningful human connections

One of the most valuable outcomes of designing effective interactions is improved human connectivity – relevant, meaningful connections between people. Human Connectivity is one of the most important social challenges affecting individuals, communities, institutions and organisations worldwide. Despite volumes of literature making a compelling case for the benefits of being better connected and the detrimental effects of being poorly connected, comparably little work explains how successful human connectivity outcomes might consistently be achieved. This talk explores years of global field experience, design and academic research dedicated to tackling this challenge and resulting in a set of design principles that may guide the design of more effective and valuable interactions.
