In today’s episode, I speak with Evan Dody. Evan is the Head of Design + Creative at Angi (including HomeAdvisor and Handy). He leads Product Design, Brand Creative, UX Research, UX Writing, and DesignOps across the multi-sided home services marketplace. He and his team help homeowners across the country create and care for homes they love, while simultaneously helping local businesses thrive.
Prior to Angi, Evan led design teams at Mailchimp and Huge in Brooklyn. He's designed customer-centric services for some of the world's most recognizable brands—McDonald's, American Express, and United Airlines to name a few. He's passionate about creating easy digital products that help people enjoy their in-person lives more and helping the small business economy thrive.
We dive into what it means to lead with optimism, including redefining optimism as an active tool for change, uncovering the why behind the work you’re doing, and the vital role that identity and representation play in believing a positive outcome is possible.
