If you were designing a workplace, would it look like the one you’re in now?

Stop laughing.

Okay, now that we’ve calmed down, what’s your answer? How would you set up your teams? How would the work flow, ideally? What kinds of training (remember training?) and learning opportunities would be provided?

Put simply, what would the user experience look like?

This is the question David Greene is answering every day. With a background in UX and a passion for making work not suck, he’s perfectly suited for the job.

He’s led some great efforts while in the agency world. Creating a time off program for employees who need to care for elderly parents or grandparents. And a part-time pilot that gave people and the agency flexibility to do great work and live a great life.

That’s the goal. As David says, we should be thinking about how we integrate work with our lives, not how to build our lives around work.

I couldn’t agree more. And I think you will too, after listening to our conversation.
