Understanding Information Architecture

We think we’re designing software, websites, and experiences. But we’re not. We are agents of change. Our systems shape belief and behavior at scale. If we hope to be better, empathy for the user isn’t enough. We must also wrangle with culture, governance, methods, metrics, and the false dichotomies of mind-body and plan-build, because the things we make are reflections of how we see and sort ourselves. In this spirited tour of information architecture and systems thinking, Peter will show you how everything is connected from code to culture, and how we might build upon this insight to plan a better future.
