Rich McCoy unpacks some formative experiences from the Kalahari Desert, how we can conquer our creative fears, and why designing lean creates value faster.
Highlights include:
- How has growing up in the Kalahari Desert shaped you?- What does it mean to “get primal” with design?- How do we get over our fear of showing our work?- What are some clues that product teams are out of alignment?- How has Dyslexia influenced your creative practice?
