Mila Shumilina

Hi! Will there be a specific topic discussed? One of the 17 UN world problems?

Devin Henkel-Legare

Hi. I was actually planning on reflecting on my recent change in job roles, with my new job focusing on creating social good and how it’s different than my job designing enterprise functionality. That was before Don Norman came out with the Design For the 21sy Century course, but there’s definitively a lot of overlap.

Ashley Hampton

Hi all! Excited to join this discussion. What kind of “good cause” will we be talking about? I’m a designer in the public service/safety sector, so I’m particularly interested in learning about what other people are doing in that space.

Devin Henkel-Legare

I’m excited to get your perspective. I’m currently working in the philanthropic arm of a private company, so I’d love to do some compare and contrast.

Nancy Shaw

Looking forward to hearing the speakers and potential zoom talk with other IxDF members after the talk(s). I joined IxDF in hopes of my using my current design experience for products and services that better the world.

Devin Henkel-Legare

That’s fantastic! Will love hearing your perspective, too. I’m convinced now more than ever that technology and design made to help people thrive and minimize the footprint of harm are an imperative.

Lord Giddie

Exciting. What are the times and specific agenda?

Devin Henkel-Legare

Hey there, Lord. The hangout is from 5:30-7:00 on Tuesday Sep 27. The agenda is pretty loose. I want to share some things I’ve learned in this transition, but then I’d love to learn more as a group, so I’ll try to keep from blabbing too much - I just want to set a foundation for the discussion.

Louis A Rodriguez

Does anyone know if this will be recorded? Wouldn’t want to miss out.

Devin Henkel-Legare

I believe we record these. I try to get all my foul language out prior to the calls. ;)

Louis A Rodriguez

Devin how can I get a hold of these recording? please advise

Ipsita Chatterjea

This talk will be recorded.

Ipsita Chatterjea

Hi Louis, we will post a link to the Slack channel. This link to Join slack will work for the next 30 days: https://join.slack.com/t/idf-chicago/shared_invite/zt-1gn5h4fud-8QMGr1_j6EPS~MzgAIBYAg

Devin Henkel-Legare

I’ll post a link back here after the session, Louis.

Devin Henkel-Legare

Thanks all! Great discussion tonight!

Klara Jarolimova

Hi all! I am sorry I have missed this. Is there a recording anywhere by a chance?

Meetup attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meetup by clicking “Attend this meetup” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meetups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meetup (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meetups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
