Description

The HCI Leadership Lab is a daily podcast focused on leadership lessons and best practices for managers and executives. Each episode explores a different topic related to leading teams, driving innovation, navigating change and solving complex problems through a user-centered design approach. We interview thought leaders in the HCI space and discuss themes like product strategy, user research methods, design thinking techniques and building high-performing teams. Our goal is to equip listeners with the people skills and leadership frameworks needed to successfully shepherd new technologies, digital products and services from idea to impact. Whether you're a director guiding large initiatives or a startup founder launching your venture, we aim to share case studies, expert advice and actionable strategies.
