How do you keep growing as a mid / senior level service design professional?
It's mostly likely less and less through formal theory and education.
Once you reach a certain level of maturity in your craft suddenly the small details and nuances start to make a big difference. But you won't find those things on Google.
These learnings are hidden in the lived experiences from other professionals and communicated through rich stories.
Until recently there wasn't a place where you could get exposed to these stories on a regular basis.
That's why in the summer of 2021 I started an experiment called the Circle. The Circle is a community of and for in-house service designers. We gather on a monthly basis to learn from each other around different topics.
The goal with the Circle was to create a safe space where it's okay to talk about the messy parts of our work. A place where you can go deep into the practice. Yes, nerding out on service design if you will :)
Now, half a year later, it was time to evaluate this experiment and define it's next iteration. Of course this happened in co-creation with the current participants.
In this short podcast episode you get a sneak peak inside the Circle.
You'll learn what's working and what isn't. The exciting plans we have for this year. And if a community like this could be right for you.
If you're currently not working in-house and still made it to the end of this email... let me know if you'd be interested in a community like this but for independent and agency folks.
