In this Master Class, get insights from Don Norman from his upcoming book, “Design for a Better World”, before it even hits the shelves and learn how you can help create meaningful, sustainable change.

In “Design for a Better World” Don Norman proposes a new way of designing, one that recognizes our place in a complex global system where even the simplest of behaviors can affect the entire world.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to learn from the “godfather of design” and ask him questions. And, no matter where you are in your career, this webinar will help you design for a better world.

Don’s experience as both a scientist and business executive gives him a unique perspective to show how to make these changes while maintaining a thriving economy.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:

  • Where we’ve gone wrong and how you can help make things better.
  • Why we designers are the best placed to help solve the biggest problems, as we have three super-powers.
  • That the key to change is how we shape human behaviour, specifically in three areas: meaning, sustainability, and humanity-centeredness.
  • The five principles of humanity-centered design and how you can apply them.
  • What is the circular economy and how you can use its three principles to tackle the climate crisis.

Register for this Master Class webinar to have a unique opportunity to learn first-hand from Don Norman.

Let the change begin. Help design for a better world!

He has a long legacy in academia, for example, at the University of California, San Diego, where he is professor and head of the UCSD Design Lab. He also co-founded the Nielsen Norman Group, a world-renowned design consultancy. He has published the globally best-selling book on design, The Design of Everyday Things, which has become foundational to the field of design.

I’m a member, but I cannot see all the Master Classes I purchased on my profile. How can I find the ones that are missing?
Many of the past Master Classes have been edited and uploaded to our platform so that our members can view them conveniently in one place.

After each Master Class broadcast, our video editors painstakingly edit, improve and enhance the quality of these recordings to give you a better experience—but this process takes time, and that’s why there’s sometimes a delay in making them available within your profile.
