Giurista per formazione, Tender Specialist per vocazione, Service Designer per mestiere e passione.

“In cosa consiste il tuo lavoro?" - “Di cosa ti occupi in azienda?” - “Chi sei?”
Sono queste alcune delle domande che mi rivolgono colleghi, fornitori, aziende, amici e familiari.
Einstein diceva che non capiamo veramente qualcosa fino a quando non siamo in grado di spiegarlo alle nostre nonne (e ammetto che non è stato semplice spiegarlo a mia nonna!).

Sono una Service Designer o più semplicemente sono la persona che “smonta” e “rimonta” un servizio per vedere come funziona (come diceva Steve Jobs “Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works”). Sono la persona che costruisce servizi utili, usabili, desiderabili e memorabili.

Ma non finisce qui perché la seconda parte del mio lavoro consiste nel raccontare i/il servizi/o progettati/o in un documento definito “Offerta tecnica” da presentare al Committente (ente pubblico o privato).

QUAL È LA MIA CASSETTA DEGLI ATTREZZI?
• Un team di progetto multidisciplinare ed eterogeneo 👩🏻 👧🏽 👨🏻
• Un approccio human-centered 👤
• Un processo creativo strutturato in 6 fasi per la progettazione, prototipazione e testing dei concept di servizio (il c.d. Design Thinking) 💡
• Un uso entusiastico di piattaforme collaborative digitali quali MURAL, MIRO e SLACK 💻
• Una formazione giuridica per conoscere “le regole del gioco” (quelle delle gare d’appalto) 👩‍⚖️
• Un’anima grafica (Indesign e Adobe XD) ✨
• Un uso accurato delle parole, quelle giuste…quelle che fanno “clack” 💬
• Tanto caffè ☕️
