In organizational contexts, it highlights how redesigning processes, workflows, and employee journeys with empathy can evoke positive emotions, motivate teams, and improve outcomes. From micro-details to overarching systems, the talk demonstrates how creativity, mindfulness, and human-centered thinking can be applied to design experiences that genuinely resonate with people and leave a lasting impact.
