what is strategic design?

this is a brief explanation of what strategic design is and how I explain it to someone who hasn’t heard of it before 😇 obviously there's so much more to cover but hopefully this helps anyone that's interested in strategic design understand the field that little bit better 💘

my views are my own and not my employers ☺️

Hey Georgia! This is awesome. I'm someone from consulting trying to break into strategic design and the video provides an excellent go-to explainer for the role. Also, I love how you mentioned design thinking is a way to "act" (as opposed to just think). Action + iteration are core to designing and I feel innovation wings in big corporate enterprises often don't underscore that enough.

Such an informative video! Your passion and enthusiasm has me intrigued with this topic.

One question though: with your statement that begins with, “Compared to hard data…” around timestamp 8:00, I wonder how a Strategic Designer should defend any doubters who just say to refer to the hard data when creating a strategy? Furthermore, how exactly would you answer what research tools/software you use to an interviewer at a business, who might not even be well informed on what strategic design is? Thank you 😊
