    Creating Culture with Claus Raasted | # 21

    Creating Culture with Claus Raasted | # 21

    Claus Raasted is an experience and behavior designer who creates Live Action Role Play (LARP) events, where groups of strangers come together to collaborate on co-creating their shared experience. This is especially relevant when facilitating the design process with groups of people who are not used to working together (such as different divisions, company partners, or even community members).
    We discuss how to help a group of collaborators become comfortable enough as a team to co-create something great.

Two episodes in and I’m hooked

I’m always looking for ways to apply knowledges from other industries across different industries. This has scratched an itch for me in teaching me how to use product design successes in the service and customer success realm.
