Shownotes
I had to burn my mic after this show. Seriously. Matt Watkinson, CEO & Co-Founder of Methodical, an experience design agency, is just awesome.
There are three books that I've read on customer experience (CX) over the last +20 years that have shifted my view on the discipline: Joe Pine's 'The Experience Economy', Luke Williams' 'The Wallet Allocation Rule', and Matt Watkinson's 'The Grid'. (And this is Matt's second book).
On this show, we cover a range of topics, including:
🎙 How the best designers are designing to elicit emotion
🎙 A principle from his first book, 'Not Leaving Anything to Chance'
🎙 The importance and use of systems thinking in customer experience
🎙 Why CX, as a discipline, is failing today
🎙 The 'Law of Double Jeopardy' in CX
🎙 Why many CX practitioners are tying their work to real business outcomes
I learn from Matt all the time, and he's on my personal Top 10 CX Leaders list. If you're not familiar with him, I would hit up his LinkedIn profile today and check out Methodical's work.
