Episode 11 – Minnie Moll

A fascinating new episode of the #21for21 podcast 🚀  🌏  with Minnie Moll, currently chief executive of the UK Design Council.

Minnie talks with Marco and Carola about the role of design, creativity and innovation in the light of ‘Design for Planet’ and the role of business as a force for transformation.

• 🎤 The covid pandemic shows us the impact that something invisible can have on our lives. This is truly globally, experiencing this at the same time. This makes very tangible the sense of one planet, one world, one people.
• 🎤 Design for Planet is about a holistic sense of sustainability and planetary needs. Focusing on net zero and carbon reduction is not enough.
• 🎤 Wow the difference that design thinking could make to organisations!!
• 🎤  We need vision and leadership for transformation. The vision has to be shared. And leadership doesn’t necessarily come from the person who has leadership in the title.
• 🎤 Good design is inclusive design. And the more diversity you have in the team, the wider your peripheral vision and the more tuned-in you are.
• 🎤  Now is design’s time because it is unequivocally going to be critical moving forward. Design shapes the world.
