About the event

Service Design Book Club: July Meetup with Chris Risdon (author)
Join us for a riveting discussion about Service Design and Orchestrating Experiences with one of the authors!

About this Event

What Will We Be Reading?

  • Chapter 9: Crafting a Tangible Vision
  • Chapter 10: Designing the Moment
  • Chapter 11: Taking Up the Baton

We're tackling a few chapters at a time to gradually moving through the book in a way that's sustainable and supportive for busy professionals.

Got a section you're passionate about discussing, especially because of how it relates to your work or personal interests? Feel free to jump in for just that session!

Got a busy month at work and you know you won't have any time to dedicate to reading? Jump in at the next one!

We want to make this easy and fun for everyone. We're here to build accountability, not be another thing for you to feel guilty about.


What If I'm Behind On the Book?

That's not a worry, you don't need to be caught up to join! We recommend reading the chapters above since this will be the focus of our discussion. Often times we end up chatting about Service Design without following the book very closely so you definitely won't be lost if you haven't read the earlier chapters.


What Should I Expect?

Fun vibes and a great discussion! We'll be going over our thoughts about a few chapters, chatting about how it relates to our professional experiences, and learning about each other along the way.

If there's something you'd like us to include in our agenda or that you think would be beneficial for the discussion, please reach out to c2Ruc2YxNSB8IGdtYWlsICEgY29t.


What's the Agenda?

10:00am - Event Starts

10:30am - Chris joins virtually

11:30am - Group wraps up book (without Chris)

12:00pm - Event ends


Who Is This For?

Anyone interested in service design! Whether you're a seasoned service designer, someone looking to pivot into service design, or just curious about how service design principles can apply to your field of work, everyone is welcome.

Great discussions come out of varied lived experiences and perspectives. Feeling shy about your limited service design experience? Don't be, the goal is to learn together!


Where Is the Next Meeting?

Our July discussion will be hosted in Oakland. We'll be alternating between East Bay and San Francisco to accommodate everyone who's interested in participating. Subject to change if one location consistently has a low turnout.


How Can I Get There?

BART: Powell Station is a 6 minute walk away.

Car: For those driving, 6x6 Garage is the closest parking garage.


How Will I Find the Group?

Please show this Eventbrite to the front desk to be let upstairs. We'll be on the couches on the 14th floor!


How Can I Stay In the Loop?

We'll be sending out emails about the book club meetings on top of updating the and a fledgling WhatsApp group. To get added to any of these, email us at c2Ruc2YxNSB8IGdtYWlsICEgY29t!


Don't miss out on this chance to expand your knowledge and build connections in a casual and supportive environment. We hope to see you there!
