Design transformation on the Clearleft podcast

Boom! The Clearleft podcast is back!

The first episode of season four just dropped. It���s all about design transformation.

I���ve got to be honest, this episode is a little inside baseball. It���s a bit navel-gazey and soul-searching as I pick apart the messaging emblazoned on the Clearleft website:

The design transformation consultancy.

Whereas most of the previous episodes of the podcast would be of interest to our peers���fellow designers���this one feels like it might of more interest to potential clients. But I hope it���s not too sales-y.

You���ll hear from Danish designer Maja Raunbak, and American in Amsterdam Nick Thiel as well as Clearleft���s own Chris Pearce. And I���ve sampled a talk from the Leading Design archives by Stuart Frisby.

The episode clocks in at a brisk eighteen and a half minutes. Have a listen.

While you���re at it, take this opportunity to subscribe to the Clearleft podcast on Overcast, Spotify, Apple, Google or by using a good ol���-fashioned RSS feed. That way the next episodes in the season will magically appear in your podcatching software of choice.

But I���m not making any promises about when that will be. Previously, I released new episodes in a season on a weekly basis. This time I���m going to release each episode whenever it���s ready. That might mean there���ll be a week or two between episodes. Or there might be a month or so between episodes.

I realise that this unpredictable release cycle is the exact opposite of what you���re supposed to do, but it���s actually the most sensible way for me to make sure the podcast actually gets out. I was getting a bit overwhelmed with the prospect of having six episodes ready to launch over a six week period. What with curating UX London and other activities, it would���ve been too much for me to do.

So rather than delay this season any longer, I���m going to drop each episode whenever it���s done. Chaos! Anarchy! Dogs and cats living together!
