Join us as the wizards of design thinking Brown and Béhar dissect the formula for harmonizing industry, beauty, brand and meaning.

  2. Freelancers: You’re Five Products Away From Freedom

    If you’re a freelancer, you know that your existence comes down to chasing after lots of client engagements, projects, gigs, whatever you want to call them. If you stop working for any reason (illness, travel, you just want or need a break) then the income stops. Adding products to the mix can be a really great way to add small (but potentially large!) streams of income that you can count on month after month. I’ll talk about using your talents and strengths to create products (ebooks, themes/templates, photography/artwork, plugins/apps, membership sites) that will appeal to an audience and generate sales. Remember, even if you only create a $100/week product, it only takes 5 or 6 of those to really start making a big difference in the way you work and live. This isn’t about creating a "four hour workweek" or some other hyped BS, this is about creating repeatable, realistic income streams.

  6. Annie Leonard: The Story Of The Story Of Stuff

    When you look at a chair what do you see? Perhaps you see a chair. What does Annie Leonard see? "It looks like mahogany or teak I wonder if it came from Indonesia or Malaysia I wonder if the Penang people got kicked off it looks like it’s PVC it could be leaching phthalates those endocrine disruptors there could be flame retardants— " Whew.

    Leonard’s friends told her she needed to lighten up. So the fast–talking environmental activist made a cartoon. "The Story of Stuff" is a critique of the materials economy. It explains where our stuff comes from, where it goes once we trash it, and argues we’re buying too much, trashing the planet, and making ourselves unhappy. Leonard estimates the video has been viewed 10 million times. It’s shown in classrooms around the United States, to the dismay of Glenn Beck.

    Annie Leonard spoke in her hometown, Seattle, at Town Hall on March 24, 2010. University Bookstore and the Town Hall Center for Civic Life sponsored the event.

  10. Tim Brown: Change By Design

    Tim Brown

    CEO, IDEO; Author, Change By Design

    One myth of innovation is that brilliant solutions leap fully formed from the minds of geniuses. In reality, we don’t simply realize solutions; we design them. Design thinking is now being applied to address a wide range of concerns, from delivering clean drinking water to improving airport security and microfinancing.

    This program was recorded in front of a live audience at the Commonwealth Club of California on November 9, 2009
