 A very warm welcome to the very first episode of Bringing Design Closer. It’s a podcast dedicated in exploring the tactical and strategic things that work in enabling a design centricity to occur in organisations, businesses, and governments.  My name is Gerry Scullion and I’m a service design practitioner based in Dublin City, Ireland.

In this episode, we caught up with André Schaminée, author of a fantastic book: Designing with and Within Public Organisations.  In the episode, we discuss what are the biggest things that prevent local councils and governments from adopting design methods.  We ask, what makes the challenges of adopting deign in government unique. We discuss, what is a wicked problem?

We discuss, also, what are the tactical things that we can do to solve wicked problems?  Such as framing and reframing as a tactical tool. As being critical to the success of not only the project, but also the integrity of the methods themselves.
