Design’s role in the built environment is to evoke an emotional response. But what happens when cultural communication norms shaped by decades of human interactions are rocked by a global pandemic? ThinkLab’s Amanda Schneiders talks to Cactus founder Noah Waxman and Kantar futurist Don Abraham about ways to elevate communication – and how to adjust, adapt, and reframe.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
1. The weak signals that indicate we are entering into a new marketplace
2. Strategies for leveraging asynchronous work – and how it benefits team creativity
3. How to avoid burnout in digital interactions
4. Why symbols and rituals are central to effective communication for a shifting landscape of work
